Thanks, Wren. I don't think we have those here but I did love eating those Reese's peanut butter cups when I was in the US.

There are numerous variations of the white christmas slice. This year I just used the recipe I'll post below with a major change. So it's just melted white chocolate, rice bubbles, chopped almonds, chopped glazed cherries (I found natural ones in red and greeny/white without the fake colour), dessicated coconut, sultanas (which I think you may call something else. They're dried sultana grapes and really small. Much sweeter and smaller than our raisins) and a hint of vanilla.

Here is the recipe I used this last time however, I didn't use 3 blocks of chocolate lol, I decided that 1 block would be sufficient. Ended up being more rice bubbly and fruity but we liked it better that way.

I can't wait for my daughter to eat it all up, then it'll be gone for another year. lol

p.s. In the rum balls I make these days, I don't actually use real Rum. If I was making them as a gift I probably would spend the dollars on a small bottle of dark rum, but we don't drink here so it's just a waste of money. It's cheaper for me to just buy a rum extract in a teeny weeny bottle. Doesn't taste the same but it's still got a small hint of the rum flavour.

p.p.s. Just had a thought... you may call the rice bubbles rice krispies. Our rice bubbles are plain which is what is used in the white christmas.
