Method
White Crackle Base
- Grease and line a 20x30cm slice tin.
- Place white chocolate and Copha in a microwave safe bowl and microwave at medium in short 30 second bursts, stirring between each burst until melted and smooth. Allow to cool.
- Combine rice bubbles, coconut and milk powder in a large bowl. Pour in cooled Copha/chocolate mixture and mix well to combine.
- Pour into the prepared slice tin and firmly press down using a spatula or flat-bottomed glass. Refrigerate until set.
Marshmallow Layer
- Place marshmallows and Copha in a microwave safe bowl and microwave on medium heat for 1 minute.
- Stir until Copha is melted and combined. Heat for another 20 seconds then working quickly, spread evenly over slice. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until set.
White Chocolate Topping
- Place chocolate and Copha in a microwave safe bowl and microwave at medium heat in short 30 second bursts, stirring between each burst until melted and smooth. Allow to cool slightly before pouring over set slice.
- Let chocolate cool slightly/semi set before decorating with easter chocolates and sprinkles as desired.
Tips & Hints:
- If you don’t have a microwave, you can place Copha and chocolate in a small saucepan and melt over a low heat.
- To secure Easter egg decorations, dip them in a small amount of melted white chocolate with 1-2 teaspoons of Copha.
- Slice will last 4 days in an air-tight container stored in a cool place.
