Church Window Cookies (aka Stained Glass Cookies) are an easy no-bake Christmas treat made with colorful mini marshmallows, walnuts, chocolate, and coconut.
Melt chocolate chips and butter in a large saucepan over low heat, stirring frequently, until melted and smooth.
Remove from heat and let cool slightly, just enough to not melt the marshmallows when they are added. 4-5 minutes should do it.
While your chocolate is cooling, lay out 3 sheets of parchment paper and sprinkle half of the shredded coconut down their centers (reserving other half for later).
Stir marshmallows and walnuts into the cooled melted chocolate until evenly coated.
Divide the mixture evenly onto the center of each of the sheets of parchment paper, shaping it into a log. Sprinkle with the remaining shredded coconut.
Use the parchment paper to roll each into a tight log.
Refrigerate the logs for at least 2 hours (or overnight).
Once set, remove the logs from the paper and slice into ½ pieces.
Notes
You can leave out the nuts or swap the walnuts for peanuts, cashews, or pecans if you prefer.For larger cookies, divide in to 2 logs rather than 3.Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
