    Thanks heaps leckert! Went shopping today and found the food colouring and will be attempting this with DH tonight! Fingers crossed it all goes to plan, as we haven't used colouring before.

    Any chance anyone hasn't eaten these all on the day they're made so you can tell me how long they'll store for? I thought I might make cherry, peppermint, orange and coffee flavoured ones for my IL Christmas - I reckon they'd last at least a week in an airtight container in the fridge wouldn't they?

    I froze a couple of batches and they defrosted really well. They were also very tasty when eaten frozen

    stupid question - do you mix the cherry ripe and peppermint together, or just halve the bikkies between them and do them separately? It reads like they go together but I can't get my head around that flavour combination!

    I admire your willpower having them that long ;-)

    I made the peppermint crisp one today. If DH doesn't eat them all they are a good start for gifts.

    Just back from the supermarket, making these to take along on Christmas Day... Making Mint Slice, Tim Tam and White Tim Tam ones... They should last well in the fridge until then, if I lock it! PMSL

    Cherry Ripe Balls

    Last year I made whole batches of each type (did a double batch of the cherry ripe ones) and then mixed flavours. The coloured coconut worked well to tell different flavours although you need to put in heaps of colouring to look good
