Ingredients
•
1/2 cup butter
•
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
•
1 (10 1/2 ounce) package rainbow colored miniature marshmallows
•
1 (8 ounce) package flaked coconut
•
parchment paper
Directions
1
Gather all ingredients.
2
Place butter in a 2 ½ quart glass or metal bowl. Place the bowl over a 3-quart saucepan of gently boiling water (upper bowl should not touch water). Cook over the simmering water until butter is melted.
3
Add chocolate chips; stir until melted, then remove from heat. Let cool 10 minutes at room temperature, stirring occasionally.
4
Add marshmallows to melted chocolate; gently stir to coat.
5
Place two 15x18-inch pieces of parchment paper on work surface. Place half of the chocolate-marshmallow mixture onto the middle of each piece of parchment and shape into a 12-inch long log using a rubber spatula.
6
Wrap logs tightly in the parchment and transfer to refrigerator; chill logs for 30 minutes.
7
Place two new 15x18-inch pieces of parchment paper on work surface and sprinkle each with 1 cup flaked coconut. Carefully transfer chilled logs (they will still be soft) to the new pieces of parchment with coconut.
8
Roll logs in coconut and gently press to fully cover outside and sides.
9
Wrap coated logs tightly in the new parchment paper and chill until firm, at least 4 hours up to overnight.

When well chilled, cut into 1/2-inch thick slices.
