Church Window Cookies
This vintage recipe is one of my favorite no-bake sliced cookies. It reminds me of the recipes my grandma would make for Christmas every year.
Kids will love how fun these cookies look! The pastel-colored-mini marshmallows really help these no bake cookies look like church windows.
Also known as stained glass window cookies. We are working on a ton of fun holiday recipes. I started testing Christmas recipes in July much to my husbands amusement.
There is nothing like working with peppermint and holiday flavors while it is 100+ degrees out.

Recipe Tips
This recipe could be doubled but I find it easier to make it in batches. Most bowls can't handle double the recipe easily.
You can use regular marshmallows if you want a white stained glass look instead of the fruity pastel marshmallows
