The countdown to Christmas is on and we couldn’t resist sharing Gran’s White Christmas recipe.
Gran Marjorie knew exactly how to bring a little extra joy to the festive season with this family favourite. In fact Corrina remembers Gran Marjorie used to go into full mass production of this delicious treat at Christmas time.
She would package some up in recycled trays, men’s shirt boxes, or cereal boxes with old cut up Christmas cards as the tags. Then she would drop them off to the RSL or Church stall to help raise money for charity and the community.
So be inspired by Gran Marjorie, and make some White Christmas to share and gift this festive season. There’s nothing like a homemade gift at Christmas time, especially if it’s yummy and shareable, so bookmark this recipe for your gift ideas this year.
And we’d love to see your version of this great recipe on socials, extra points for impressive wrapping!
