The Ingredients For White Christmas

• white chocolate - because this is the main ingredient in this recipe, it's important to use a good quality white chocolate (such as Cadbury, Whittakers, Hersheys, Lindt or Nestle)... trust me - a good quality chocolate makes ALL the difference!! I recommend using cooking chocolate or chocolate melts as they melt the easiest.
• dried cranberries - also known as craisins. These can be purchased from the dried fruit section of your supermarket.
• toasted slivered almonds - you can buy raw slivered almonds and toast them in a frying pan over low heat on the stovetop, or you can purchase pre-toasted slivered almonds.
• sultanas
• desiccated coconut - this is a fine coconut that can be purchased in packets from the supermarket.
• rice bubbles - or you can use any brand of puffed rice such as Rice Krispies.

Add all the remaining ingredients and stir to combine until all of the dried fruits, nuts and Rice Bubbles are coated with the melted chocolate.

Press the mixture firmly into the prepared baking tin and chill in the fridge.
