CHOCOLATE CRACKLES

     CHOC-CRACKLES - A traditional Australian sweet snack

     Mention this recipe to an Australian abroad and he will
     instantly get homesick.

INGREDIENTS (serves 6)
     8 oz      copha
     8 oz      icing sugar
     3 1/2 Tbsp
               cocoa
     5 cups    Rice Bubbles
     1/2 cup   sultanas (optional)

PROCEDURE
          (1)  Combine sifted icing sugar, cocoa, rice bubbles,
               and optional sultanas.

          (2)  Melt copha and add to ingredients and mix
               thoroughly.

          (3)  Spoon into paper cups and allow to set.

NOTES
     Rice Bubbles are called Rice Krispies in North America.
     Icing sugar is confectioner's sugar. Sultanas are like
     raisins. Copha, it would appear, is utterly unavailable out-
     side Australia. It is a partially-solidified shortening made
     of coconut oil.

RATING
     Difficulty: easy if you can get the ingredients.  Time: 5
     minutes preparation, 1 hour cooling.  Precision: approximate
     measurement OK.
