Ingredients

• 300 grams Mini colored marshmallows
• 1.5 cups Desiccated coconut
• 8 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 0.5 cups Chopped pecans or walnuts
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (for sprinkling)

Directions

Step 1

Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

Step 2

In a heatproof bowl, combine the unsalted butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips. Melt them together using a double boiler or in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth and glossy.

Step 3

Remove the melted chocolate mixture from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the mini colored marshmallows and chopped pecans or walnuts.

Step 5

Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the marshmallows and nuts, and gently fold until all the pieces are evenly coated.

Step 6

Spread a generous amount of desiccated coconut onto the prepared parchment paper.

Step 7

Spoon the chocolate-marshmallow mixture onto the coconut in a log shape. Use your hands or a spatula to shape it into a cylinder, sprinkling the log with additional desiccated coconut to fully coat it.

Step 8

Wrap the log tightly in parchment paper or plastic wrap, pressing gently to maintain the shape.

Step 9

Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm and set.

Step 10

Once chilled, unwrap the log and dust lightly with powdered sugar for a snowy, festive finish.

Step 11

Slice into 1/2-inch pieces and serve chilled or at room temperature.
