The method

Step by step

1
In a large bowl, combine the mini marshmallows, chopped dates, pecans, walnuts, shredded coconut, and the main portion of graham cracker crumbs.
About 3 min
Cook’s note: Using a very large bowl will make mixing easier as the mixture is quite bulky.
2
Pour the sweetened condensed milk over the dry ingredients.
About 1 min
3
Using a sturdy spoon or your hands, mix everything until thoroughly combined. The mixture will be very sticky.
About 5 min
Cook’s note: If using your hands, lightly grease them with butter or oil to prevent sticking.
4
Spread the remaining graham cracker crumbs for the coating onto a large plate or a sheet of parchment paper.
About 1 min
5
Divide the sticky mixture in half and, on a clean surface, shape each portion into a log about 5cm (2 inches) in diameter.
About 3 min
6
Roll each log in the graham cracker crumbs until it is evenly coated on all sides.
About 2 min
Cook’s note: Gently press the crumbs into the log to help them adhere.
7
Wrap each log tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil.
8
Refrigerate the wrapped logs for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
About 2 hr
Cook’s note: Chilling is essential for the roll to set properly, making it easy to slice.
