Can you remember the taste of White Christmas from when you were younger? It certainly wasn’t a favorite of mine. as I found copha to be overwhelming in flavor. For those of you who don’t know what Copha is, it’s hydrogenated coconut oil and features in Australian recipes such as White Christmas and Chocolate Crackles. When you taste this delicious version of Low Carb White Christmas, you are going to be blown away by the taste. Coconut butter and coconut oil combined, create a more pure and healthy coconut flavor that tastes absolutely divine.
It has been a real hit in out house with lots of taste testers sampling it. I had a batch of this made up for Christmas but it has already been devoured so will have to make up a fresh batch. While I like to make this in a slab and slice it up, you can also use a silicon mold and create individual serves, or healthy little ‘fat bombs’.
Variations
Feel free to customise this to your own taste or to use what you have in the pantry. While I love the taste of the Sugar Free Dried Cranberries you could also use Sugar Free Dried Blueberries or freeze dried fruit such as strawberries. Almonds would also go really well in this recipe if you don’t have pistachio.
While the recipe also features vanilla WPI (protein powder) you could omit this but will need to add more sweetener as the WPI adds sweetness to the recipe. I’d recommend using a powdered sweetener to keep the texture smooth. The coconut stevia drops are used to add additional coconut flavor and not sweetness, so if you don’t have any simply omit from the recipe.
Edible Gifts
While I love to make a batch of Low Carb White Christmas to have on hand in the fridge, they would be perfect for gifting as well. I know I would love to receive a batch of these. If you are looking for other edible gift ideas, you might find some inspiration from some of these recipes.
