Introduction
My mom makes these Cathedral Cookies each year around Christmas time. I don't know where she got her original recipe so I found a similar recipe online and adapted to our needs. We used Ghirardelli chocolate baking chips (instead of regular semi-sweet chocolate chips) and pecan cookie pieces (in place of chopped walnuts). Now I can enjoy them as part of my meal plan and my type 1 diabetic son can also enjoy these because we now have the nutrition, serving, and carbohydrate factor information! Happy Holidays!

1 stick (112 g) Great Value, Unsalted Sweet Cream Butter
12 oz (340 g) bag Ghirardelli Chocolate Premium Baking Chips - Semi-Sweet Chocolate
1 cup (112 g) Fisher Chef's Naturals Pecan Cookie Pieces

Tips
These cookies are sometimes called Cathedral Windows, Church Windows, Church Cookies, etc.
Directions
Heat butter and chocolate chips in the top of a double boiler over low heat, stirring occasionally, until melted and smooth. After the mixture is completely melted and slightly cooled, stir in the nuts. Gently stir in the marshmallows until completely coated.
Divide the mixture into 3 parts. Put each mixture part onto a separate large piece of waxed paper. You will want 3 log-like shapes. Roll the waxed paper tightly into 2-inch diameter logs around each of the 3 logs of cookie mixture, and place in the refrigerator overnight, or until firm.
Once firm or before serving, unwrap from waxed paper and cut into 1/2" slices.
These may be stored in airtight containers, and will keep for a week or two.
