Rocky Road Candy

Our family loves this and there are a few different ways to make it but this is the only way I prefer to make it.

Ingredients
1 -12oz bag Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips
1 - 14oz can Sweetened Condensed Milk
2 TBSP Butter (Not Margarine)
1 - 10oz bag Mini Marshmallows (abt 5-6 cups)
1 3/4 cup Chopped Pecans (this is where you can also change to salted peanuts or whatever you would prefer.)
1 small bag Shredded Coconut

Directions
In a large bowl toss marshmallows, chopped pecans and 3/4 of the bag of coconut.

In a 9x13 glass pan, line bottom with wax paper (I never do this) I just grease the pan with butter, sprinkle 1/2 of the reserved coconut on the bottom of your pan.

In medium sauce pan combine butter, milk and chocolate chips. Cook over medium/low heat until just melted. Do Not Over Cook!!!
Remove from heat. Pour over marshmallow mixture and mix until combined.

Scoop large spoonfuls into pan and carefully spread until even. Sprinkle remaining coconut on top. Refrigerate 1-2 hours (I rarely do this part either, I usually just dig in to this gooyness!!) Cut into pieces, if you haven't eaten the whole pan yet. Store into air tight container if you have any left. :-) ENJOY!!
