It tastes divine!


makes 24

250g packet marshmallows, halved100g packet dried cranberries110g packet macadamia nuts, roughly chopped60g pistachios (optional)1/3 cup (35g) desiccated coconut2 x 180g blocks good-quality white chocolate, chopped

Do This - 
  • Grease a 20cm square cake pan. Line base and sides with baking paper, allowing a 2cm overhang on all sides.
  • Combine marshmallows, cranberries, nuts and coconut in a bowl. Place chocolate in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave on medium-high for 1-2 minutes, stirring with a metal spoon every 30 seconds, or until smooth.
  • Pour chocolate over marshmallow mixture. Mix well. Spoon mixture into prepared pan, pressing down with a spatula. Refrigerate for 2 hours or until set. Using a warm knife, cut into squares. Serve.




I used less craisins (which I hope are the same as dried cranberries because that's all I could find) and added some chopped lolly snakes for extra chew and colour.

Chocolate Crackles

These are an absolute must for kids' parties.

Makes approximately 28

1 cup icing sugar
1 cup dessicated coconut
250g block copha, melted
5 tablespoons cocoa powder

Do This -

Mix all ingredients together in a bowl.

These are so easy the kids can make them themselves.
