An Australian White Christmas

"We may not get snow for Christmas, but we make a beautiful sweet slice called "White Christmas". Great for gift baskets - definitely an Australian icon. This recipe is from a clipping I have kept as a young bride circa 1989."

  1. An easy-to-make treat -- and very Australian. It is a little sweet for my tastebuds, so would probably cut back on the icing sugar in future. For those who are wondering, Crisco shortening is a good substitute for copha. Made for Pick a Chef. Thanks Catherine for being a great adoptee.
     
  2. An Ausie christmas favourite, thanks for posting, I couldn't find my recipe

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I used to love buying cooking magazines every month but I found that I would use 1 or 2 recipes if I was lucky. Then I stumbled across Recipezaar in a search engine when looking for inspiration for sausages. I really like the variety and I have gotten some great ideas. Things have changed since that day. I don't waste money on the magazines any more. Now my family are enjoying a new variety of meals, which have been fantastic. <a href="http://www.amazingcounter.com"><img border="0" src="http://c8.amazingcounters.com/counter.php?i=1693325&c=5080288" alt="Counters"></a><a href="http://www.coupons-coupon-codes.com/hsn/">HSN.com Coupon</a>
