CHOCOLATE CANDY ROLL
This was one of my favorite things my Mom use to make at Christmas time. I am guessing Grandma McCleve use to make it too since she submitted it for the 1st McCleve cookbook. I love that you store it in the freeze and it is so easy to make.
1/2 cup margarine or butter
2 sq. unsweetened chocolate
1 egg, beaten
1 1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 cup broken nuts
1 1/2 cup miniature marshmallows (colored marshmallows make it look "festive")
Coconut (about 3 1/2 oz.)
Tin Foil
Melt margarine and chocolate over heat. Stir constantly. Cool slightly. Stir in powdered sugar and beaten egg. Cool. Fold in nuts and marshmallows. Stir until they are coated with chocolate. Depending on how big you want to make your rolls - get out 2-4 pieces of tin foil. Coat tin foil with coconut. Drop mixture onto tin foil and shape into a candy roll. Can sprinkle coconut on top as well. Wrap carefully. Store in freezer until needed. Yields: 2 lbs. Can be taken directly out of the freezer and sliced without thawing.
