Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 2 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 3 cups Rainbow mini marshmallows
- 1 cup Shredded sweetened coconut
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat.
Add the semi-sweet chocolate chips to the melted butter and stir constantly until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the chocolate mixture cool slightly (for about 3-5 minutes).
While cooling, in a small bowl, whisk the eggs and granulated sugar together until well combined.
Slowly add the whisked egg-sugar mixture to the slightly cooled chocolate mixture, stirring constantly to avoid cooking the eggs.
Stir in the vanilla extract and mix until fully combined.
Place the rainbow mini marshmallows in a large mixing bowl. Pour the chocolate mixture over the marshmallows and gently fold until the marshmallows are fully coated.
Divide the mixture into 2 or 3 equal portions. On long sheets of parchment paper, sprinkle some shredded sweetened coconut to coat the surface.
Shape each portion of the marshmallow-chocolate mixture into a log (approximately 2 inches in diameter) on top of the coconut. Roll the log in the coconut, ensuring it is evenly coated, and then wrap it tightly in the parchment paper.
Refrigerate the logs for at least 2 hours or until firm.
Once chilled, unwrap the logs and use a sharp knife to slice them into 1/2-inch thick cookies.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
