It's like eating a fluffy cloud. This was a first prize winner at a charity auction and contest in August 2007. [Note: When you beat the cream and chop the candy, the calories escape! Not sure if the calories are gone from the bags of bits since you did not use your own energy to chop the candy???] Ingredients:
6 egg whites |
1 3/4 cups white sugar |
1 pint whipping cream |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
