Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 180ºC (356ºF) and line a 9” x 9” square tin with parchment paper. Set aside.
Mix Base Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine cornflakes, almond meal, coconut sugar, and baking powder. Mix until combined. Set aside.
Melt Coconut Oil and Honey: In a small saucepan, gently heat the coconut oil and honey over low heat until the oil is completely melted.
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the melted coconut oil and honey into the bowl of dry ingredients. Mix with a wooden spoon until everything is well combined.
Press into Pan: Transfer the mixture to the lined pan, pressing down firmly to form an even layer, use your hands or silicone spatula.
Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes until the edges are browned and the center is golden. It will still be soft and bubbly when removed from the oven, it will firm up as it cools.
Cool Base: Allow the baked base to cool in the pan for 20 minutes.

Prepare Icing: When the base has about few minutes remaining to cool, start making the icing. In a small mixing bowl, sift the icing sugar. Pour in the melted butter and water. Whisk until smooth and thick.
Apply Icing: After the base has cooled for 20 minutes in the pan, pour the icing over the still-warm base, while it’s still in the pan. Move the pan around to help spread the icing evenly across the surface or use a spatula.
Chill to Set: Place the pan in the refrigerator and chill for 1-2 hours or until the icing and base is firm and has set.
Cut and Serve: Remove the slice from the tin, cut into squares, and enjoy!
