What is White Christmas?
Popular in Australia, White Christmas is an easy no bake slice made using Rice Bubbles or Rice Krispies, coconut and dried fruit. Traditional versions use copha to bind the ingredients but my version uses white chocolate.

What chocolate should I use?
Use a good quality white chocolate that you would enjoy eating on its own. Avoid the cheap stuff. I prefer to use a block of white chocolate, but you could use melts or chocolate chips if you like.
Can I change an ingredient?
I recommend keeping the quantities as they are, but you can change up the fix-in’s if you like. You could use a different nut, or leave out the pistachios if you have a nut allergy.
You could add chocolate chips instead or double the cranberries. Just keep the fix-in’s to about 2 cups worth in total.
But I do think this recipe is perfect as is, so do give it a try!

Nutrition Information
Phil says
Hi,
I found this recipe too sweet, especially with 500g of white chocolate with the ingredient ratios that you suggest. Reducing the white chocolate to 300g to just combine and stick the other ingredients together works well. I added a pinch of Maldon smoked salt to also offset the oversweetness, which appeals to the more adult taste and gives that occasional salt surprise similar to a Snickers bar.
Jessica Holmes says
Thanks for your feedback Phil!
Mel says
The white chocolate didn’t melt started to go thick . Did the 30 second intervals?
Jessica Holmes says
Hi Mel, that’s strange. What type of white chocolate did you use? I usually use a block of white chocolate either Cadbury or Nestle brand.
Joanna says
I don’t usually like white Christmas and never thought this combination of ingredients would work but wow I was so wrong. This is really really good. The biggest selling point of no copha sealed it for me. Love this so much. My husband reminded me several times to keep him a few pieces before sharing with guests! Thank you so much!
Jessica Holmes says
That’s so wonderful to hear Joanna! So glad this recipe turned you into a White Christmas fan.
Judith says
Just made this to take on Christmas day. My husband commented how good it is even though he doesn’t eat pistachio or cranberries. (We had to taste the bits left after cutting into pieces).
Jessica Holmes says
Aw love hearing that Judith!
Kristina Schwalger says
Thank you so much for not adding Copha in this White Christmas recipe
Jessica Holmes says
So welcome! It’s really not needed.
Nancy says
Can I substitute condensed milk for the white chocolate?
Jessica Holmes says
I haven’t tried Nancy but probably. I’d do half half though to make sure it sets.
Fiona says
Can I use Cadbury White Cooking chocolate for this recipe.
Jessica Holmes says
Yes!!
Fiona says
Thankyou
Josh says

Jessica Holmes says
So glad you enjoyed it Josh!
hebah says
This recipe was delicious I tried with white chocolate and gold chocolate both was super yummy 😋
But I founded hard to cut it neatly it always cracks specially at the bottom how can I cut it easily?
Jessica Holmes says
Oh it would be lovely with gold chocolate! Perhaps just leave it at room temperature for 15 minutes or so before slicing so its not fridge cold – and use a hot knife!
Rhonda says
It says its a no bake but at top of recipe it says 2 hours 20 min?
Jessica Holmes says
Hi Rhonda, sorry about that. It is definitely no bake, it was just referring to the 2 hour chill time.
