Author Diana
Servings 30 cookies
Prep Time 20 minutes
Chill time 2 hours
Total Time 2 hours 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 stick (113g) unsalted butter
  • 2 cups/12oz (340g) chocolate chips milk chocolate or semi-sweet
  • 1 cup (125g) walnuts chopped
  • 1 10oz bag pastel mini marshmallows
  • cups sweetend shredded coconut or powdered sugar or ground nuts

Instructions

  • In a microwave-safe bowl, or over a double boiler, melt the chocolate and butter until it's smooth. Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes so it does not melt the marshmallows.
  • Combine marshmallows with chopped walnuts then pour the melted chocolate over the mixture. Stir to combine.
  • Spread coconut on wax paper, and transfer half of the mixture over the coconut, and shape it into a log with the help of wax paper. Repeat with the second log.
  • Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and chill in the fridge until set, about 2 hours. Then slice with a knife into ¼ inch slices and serve.

Notes

  • Use Your Favorite Nuts: I use walnuts, but feel free to use pecans or peanuts instead.
  • Heavy duty plastic wrap works best in this recipe. The thinner stuff will break and tear more easily, making rolling up the log difficult.
  • To harden the log more quickly, place it in the freezer for about an hour.
  • Store church window cookies in the fridge. Stored in an airtight container, it can be kept for up to 2 weeks.
  • For longer storage, wrap first with plastic wrap, then with foil or wax paper, and store in the freezer for up to 2 months.
  • To serve, take the cookies out of the fridge and allow them to sit for 10 minutes before enjoying them.
