NOTE: The recipe says to beat till fluffy!They sure mean that too!I thought I would beat just till peaks formed....well, I did it too much!The mallows set really quick when it is overbeaten!
this is amazing! I LOVE marshmallows but have had to cut them out of my diet! do u know the calories for it? and do they puff up when u heat them like normal marshmallows?

Looks good - just looks like a pain to make though. I'm into simplicity when it comes to preparing food.
