Line a loaf tin with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal later.
Place the plain sweet biscuits into a large mixing bowl and crush them into fine crumbs using a rolling pin or a food processor.
Add the chopped fruit-flavored marshmallows to the bowl with the biscuit crumbs. Mix to distribute evenly.
Melt the butter in the microwave or on the stovetop and pour it into the bowl along with the sweetened condensed milk.
Using a wooden spoon or clean hands, mix everything together until well combined and the mixture forms a sticky dough.
Scoop the mixture out and shape it into a log approximately 20 cm (8 inches) long. You may need to dampen your hands slightly to help shape the log without it sticking.
Spread the desiccated coconut evenly on a clean surface or a piece of parchment paper. Roll the log in the coconut until it is fully coated on all sides.
Wrap the log tightly in plastic wrap or parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
Once set, remove the log from the fridge and slice it into 1 cm (0.4 inch) thick pieces. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
