Copha is the Australian brand for Kremelta. These products are identical but in different packaging.

Ingredients

  • 80g Copha, room temperature, diced
  • 260g white cooking chocolate, chopped
  • 1 ½ (45g) cups rice bubbles
  • ½ cup desiccated coconut
  • ⅓ cup chopped glace cherries
  • Freeze dried raspberry powder & crumb (see tip)
  • ¼ cup melted white chocolate melts
  • White chocolate stars (see tip)

Method

  1. Line a rectangular oven tray with baking paper. Place Copha and chocolate in a medium microwave proof, heat-safe bowl. Microwave for 1 minute on high, stir then microwave in 30 second bursts until melted and smooth.
  2. Add rice bubbles, coconut and cherries and stir until combined. Spread mixture on prepared pan until 1cm thick. Sprinkle with freeze dried raspberry powder and crumb. Place in the fridge to set.
  3. Once set hard, remove White Christmas from the fridge and stand for 5 minutes. Cut in half lengthways. Cut along each piece with a sharp knife to form Xmas tree triangles. If you prefer you can make half into trees and half broken into chards for serving.
  4. Melt chocolate melts and use to stick stars on top of Christmas trees. Place trees and chards in the fridge until ready to decorate.

Tips: White chocolate stars for Christmas Trees are available in major supermarkets in the cake decorating section.
