White Christmas Slice

Line a 20cm square cake tin with baking paper. (Spray a little oil in the tin first to hold the baking paper in place.)

Drain macadamias and transfer to a food processor. Add coconut oil and maple syrup and blend until smooth. Transfer to a bowl.

Add coconut, orange zest, puffed rice, cranberries and pistachios and mix well to combine.

Spoon mixture into tin and press down firmly to flatten.

Melt chocolate pieces in the microwave in 30 second intervals (or in a bowl over a saucepan with a small amount of simmering water, stirring) until just melted. It should be warm to the touch but not too hot or it won’t set properly.

Transfer to a piping bag, or use a fork, and drizzle chocolate over the slice. Refrigerate for 1 hour until firm.

Cut into 16 even pieces. Store refrigerated in an airtight container for 1 week.

*To cut down the prep time, soak macadamias in boiled water for at least 20 minutes.
