Church Windows




Source of Recipe


A Mr. Food Christmas by Art Ginsburg


Recipe Introduction


"There's something magical about stained glass church windows especially when the sun shines through them. That's why these are perfect for brightening up cookie trays!"



List of Ingredients




1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
1 package (12 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped walnuts

1 package (10 1/2 ounces) multicolored miniature marshmallows
1 cup sweetened flaked coconut, divided


Recipe



In a large saucepan, melt the butter and chocolate chips over low heat, stirring constantly. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla and walnuts. Cool the mixture for about 15 minutes, until cooled but not to the point of hardening. Fold in the marshmallows and stir until well coated. Spoon half of the mixture lengthwise down the center of an 18-inch piece of waxed paper. Shape into a 12" x 2" log and place at one edge of the waxed paper. Sprinkle 1/2 cup coconut over the remainder of the waxed paper. Roll the log over the coconut, evenly coating the outside of the entire log. Wrap the log tightly in the waxed paper, folding the ends snugly. Repeat with the other half of the marshmallow mixture and the remaining 1/2 cup coconut. Chill until firm, at least 2 hours, or overnight. Unwrap each log and cut into 1/2-inch slices.

YIELD: 4 Dozen
