20 minThis twist on the classic church window candy adds a minty surprise. Both mint chocolate chips and regular chocolate chips melt together with margarine to create a double-chocolate base with a cool, refreshing edge.
Fold in colored mini marshmallows and chopped nuts, then roll the mixture into logs on a bed of flaked coconut. The coconut clings to the outside and gives each slice a snowy border around the colorful stained-glass center.
No oven, no fuss. Just chill until firm, slice into rounds, and arrange them on a platter. They disappear fast at cookie swaps and holiday parties.
Kitchen Tips
- Cool the melted chocolate before stirring in the marshmallows. You want them whole and colorful, not melted into the mix.
- Pack the coconut layer thick on the wax paper so the logs get an even coating all around.
- Use a sharp knife and wipe the blade between slices for the cleanest presentation.
- Store in the fridge. They soften quickly at room temperature.
