    The ingredients for christmas crackles.
    • Coconut Oil - this is what gives the Christmas crackles their crunch! Do not substitute this ingredient.
    • Cocoa Powder - use regular unsweetened cocoa powder.
    • Icing Sugar - you can use icing sugar mixture or pure icing sugar.
    • Rice Bubbles - or any brand of puffed rice.
    • Coconut - use fine, dry desiccated coconut.
    • White Chocolate - I recommend using white chocolate melts as they melt easier.
    • Spearmint Leaf Lollies - if you can't find spearmint leaves, use green lolly snakes chopped into pieces.

    • once you've added the rice bubbles, ensure you use the REVERSE function, so as to not chop the rice bubbles.
    • if you can't find spearmint leaves, substitute them with chopped green lolly snakes

    FAQs

    Help! I can't find spearmint leaf lollies. What else can I use?

    Just like I have in these photos, you can use green lolly snakes cut into small pieces.

    Can I substitute the coconut oil for butter?

    No, the coconut oil is what gives the chocolate crackles their crunchiness!

    How should I store the Christmas crackles?

    To keep the Thermomix Christmas crackles crunchy, they should be stored in an airtight container in the fridge. They will last for up to 1 week.
