White Christmas Recipe

🎄🥥🍪

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 10 minutes
Yield: 1 batch

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup sultanas
  • 1 cup currants
  • 1/3 cup raisins
  • 1/3 cup icing sugar
  • 1/3 cup powdered milk
  • 1 cup Kremelta (or Copha)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla essence

Instructions:

  1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sultanas, currants, raisins, icing sugar, and powdered milk. Ensure they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

  2. Melt Kremelta: In a saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, melt the Kremelta (or Copha) until it becomes a smooth liquid consistency.

  3. Combine Ingredients: Pour the melted Kremelta over the dry ingredients in the bowl. Add vanilla essence to the mixture. Stir well until all the dry ingredients are coated evenly with the melted Kremelta.

  4. Press Into Tin: Prepare a flat baking tin by lightly greasing it. Transfer the mixture into the tin and press it down firmly to form an even layer. You can use the back of a spoon or spatula to smooth the surface.

  5. Cut and Refrigerate: Before the mixture hardens completely, use a sharp knife to cut it into desired shapes or bars. Then, transfer the tin to the refrigerator to allow the White Christmas to set completely.

  6. Serve and Enjoy: Once set, remove the White Christmas from the tin and serve it on a platter or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Enjoy the nostalgic flavors of this classic New Zealand and Australian treat!
