ROASTED COCONUT CARROTS



Roasted Coconut Carrots image

Carrots don't have to be boring or lackluster. Roasting, which captures the carrots' natural sweetness, is emphasized here with the aromatic sweetness of coconut oil. Cilantro, mint, jalapeño and lime ensure there nothing one-dimensional about this dish at all. Chop the herbs just before serving for the freshest flavor.

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for the pan
4 cups marshmallows (about 7 ounces)
Orange gel food coloring
4 cups crisp rice cereal
1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
Green sour apple twists or licorice twists, for topping

  • Invert the cereal treat onto a cutting board and peel off the plastic wrap. Cut into 12 wedges. Make a hole in the rounded edge of each wedge with a skewer and insert the candy to look like a carrot top.
