  1. I'm a New Zealander living in the U.S. My family always used to make this "Rainbow Log" for birthdays. I just made it using Nabisco Nilla Wafers instead of Malt Biscuits, and Marshmallow Peanuts from my local grocery store as I didn't have access to Eskimos or Fruit Puffs. Absolutely delicious and very similar to the original! Maybe a tiny bit sweeter than if Malt Biscuits were used.
