Instructions

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place the candy melts in a medium, microwave-safe bowl and microwave them on high for 3 minutes or until smooth and creamy. Stir every 30 seconds during the cooking process so you don’t burn the candy melts.
Add the coconut oil to the mixture and stir until combined.
Add the marshmallows and almonds. Stir until they’re fully coated.
Spoon onto the prepared baking sheet in heaping, big spoonfuls.
Immediately top each cookie with a red heart sprinkle.
Place in the fridge to chill for about 10 minutes or until hardened. Enjoy!

Living in Australia, I've never heard of - or seen - Vibrant Green Candy Melts?
Would there be anything else that can be substituted?

  Ive never seen them either, maybe some white chocolate chips with a drop of green food coloring would work, start with just a small amount of color as you can always add more but once it in your not getting it out.

  Almond bark. Wilton cake makes candy melts in every color in the rainbow. White baking chocolate with food coloring will work too.

Maybe we could use green with a dab of yellow. That should give us that crazy green. Worth a try.

  Or mix your blue and yellow to get the green you want
