Chocolate crackles #1

6 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
8 ounces Copha
8 ounces Icing sugar
teaspoon Cocoa
5 cups Rice Bubbles
½ cup Sultanas (optional)

Directions

Combine sifted icing sugar, cocoa, rice bubbles and optional sultanas. Melt copha and add to ingredients and mix thoroughly. Spoon into paper cups and allow to set.

NOTES:

* A traditional Australian sweet snack -- Mention this recipe to an Australian abroad and he will instantly get homesick. Yield: serves 6.

* Rice Bubbles are called Rice Krispies in North America. Icing sugar is confectioner's sugar. Sultanas are like raisins. Copha, it would appear, is utterly unavailable outside Australia. It is a partially-solidified shortening made of coconut oil.

: Difficulty: easy if you can get the ingredients.

: Time: 5 minutes preparation, 1 hour cooling.

: Precision: approximate measurement OK.
