I like this recipe for many reasons. It is a very easy to prepare and slice, looks great on a dessert plate, soft and chewy, and tastes good, too. It is hard to eat just one slice of this old-fashioned Chocolate Marshmallow Log. I am happy to share this recipe with my JAP friends. Enjoy! Photos are my own, recipe from...

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
6 cups miniature marshmallows
1/2 cup butter or 1 stick
1 cup coarse chopped walnuts
1 cup coarse chopped pecans

Steps:

  • 1. Assemble all the ingredients before you begin. (chocolate chips, butter, marshmallows and chopped walnuts.)
  • 2. Chop the pecans.
  • 3. Melt the butter in a medium sauce pan over medium low heat, and stir in the chcolate chips.
  • 4. Stir the mixture until smooth, then remove from burner and set aside to cool. Set timer for 7 minutes. NOTE: YOU DO NOT WANT MARSHMALLOWS TO MELT.
  • 5. After the mixture is cool, add the walnuts and stir, then add the marshmallows. Gently mix well, and pour mixture onto 2 pieces of wax paper. Roll in the wax paper into two tight 7 inch logs. Then roll in two pieces of tin foil to give your roll some stability. Refrigerate for about a half hour.
  • 6. Remove from fridge and carefully open the foil. Use the same tin foil you rolled the log in and add the chopped pecans to it. The log should be firm enough to roll in the chopped pecans as depicted in my photo. When the roll is covered with nuts, wrap the log tightly in the same foil and return to the refrigerator for 24 hours.
  • 7. Slice the log into 1/4 inch slices the next day. Store in a tight container in the fridge. You will have a lot of nuts left in the tin foil, bag them up and freeze them to go in cookies, ice cream sundaes or other desserts.
  • 8. Here is how it looks! Enjoy!

Time 15m

Yield 2 logs, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups sweetened flaked coconut
2 cups miniature marshmallows
2 cups crushed graham crackers
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup chopped walnuts
10 candied cherries, quartered

Steps:

  • Sprinkle coconut evenly on a sheet of waxed paper.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together marshmallows, graham cracker crumbs, condensed milk, walnuts and cherries.
  • Shape into a log.
  • Place on waxed paper and roll in coconut.
  • Wrap with waxed paper and refrigerate until firm.

Tips:

  • Choose the right marshmallows: Use fresh, soft marshmallows, ideally homemade or store-bought with a chewy texture. Avoid stale or hard marshmallows, as they will not melt properly and could ruin the recipe.
  • Use a double boiler or a microwave: To melt the marshmallows, use a double boiler or a microwave. A double boiler is the safest method, as it prevents the marshmallows from burning. If using a microwave, heat them in short intervals, stirring constantly, to avoid overheating.
  • Add flavorings: To enhance the flavor of the marshmallow logs, consider adding flavorings such as vanilla extract, chocolate syrup, peanut butter, or any other desired flavoring. You can also add chopped nuts, dried fruits, or sprinkles for a fun and colorful twist.
  • Chill thoroughly: After dipping the marshmallows in chocolate, chill them thoroughly to allow the chocolate to set and harden. This will help the logs hold their shape and prevent the chocolate from melting too quickly.

Conclusion:

With these tips in mind, you can easily create delicious and visually appealing marshmallow logs that are perfect for any occasion. Whether you are hosting a party, preparing a sweet treat for your family, or simply satisfying your sweet cravings, these marshmallow logs are sure to be a hit. So, gather your ingredients, put on your apron, and start experimenting with different flavors and toppings to create your own unique marshmallow log masterpiece!
