Makes about 60

1/4 pound butter or magarine

Heat butter and chocolate chips in the top of a double boiler over low heat, stirring occasionally, until melted and smooth. Cool slightly. Toss marshmallows and nuts in a large bowl; stir in chocolate. Tear five 9-inch sheets of waxed paper and sprinkle each generously with coconut. Divide dough into fifths and place each fifth on a sheet of waxed paper. Roll tightly into 2-inch diameter logs and refrigerate overnight or until firm. Before serving, unwrap from waxed paper and cut into 1/2" slices.

Would make this again. Made them for the first time last year, for the Holidays. Only problem for me was the colored marshmallows were fruit flavored, so I has to use the white marsmallows, still looked good, and tastes great. Kids loved them, I omit the nuts because of children with allergies. five stars

I have made these, which I have called church windows, for years. I was unable to make them this year as I was unable to find colored marshmallows! five stars

This was my Dads favorite, so we make it every year and remember him as we eat it. I make mine in mini loaf pans and then slice it. I think that makes it less messy five stars
