I’m dreaming of a (healthy) White Christmas!

December 17, 2012 · 31 Comments

I'm dreaming of a (healthy) White Christmas!

 

White Christmas is one of those traditional foods that only makes an appearance once a year! To be honest, I wasn’t really ever a fan.

Sickly sweet with an oily copha taste….. hmmm…….

My daughter and I experimented yesterday and come up with something a bit healthier and a whole lot yummier.

 

I’m dreaming of a (healthy) White Christmas!

**vegetarian, gluten-free, egg-free, additive-free, thermomix**

 

Okay, so this is what you need:

2 cups organic brown rice puffs

1 cup organic dried cranberries

1 cup organic, raw, unsalted pistachios

1 cup organic coconut flakes

200g Green and Blacks organic white chocolate

200g organic, virgin coconut oil

Okay, so this is how you do it:

Chuck your white chocolate and coconut oil into the thermomix. Melt on 50 degrees, 1 minute, speed 1.

Throw in the rest of your ingredients and mix, reverse, speed 1 for about 20 seconds.

Pour into a baking paper lined small tray (or you could fling into muffin cases).

Whack into the freezer or fridge until firm and set.

It must be stored in the fridge – it will melt quickly, particularly in this weather. The freezer is better!

Enjoy.

Top Tips:

*If you don’t have a thermomix – melt the chocolate and coconut oil together in a saucepan and pour over other ingredients in a large bowl and mix well.

*I don’t add any sugar or sweetener as the chocolate and craisins make it sweet enough. But try it and add some if you want to.

*Use any combination of fruit and nuts you like – I just think cranberries and pistachios are so Christmasy!

*If you love chocolate, try making my really healthy chocolate crackle recipe into a slice with some craisins and pistachios!
