Coffee Marshmallow
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Coffee marshmallows, of course, have a pleasant coffee flavor and are not at all overly sweet. The tiny specks of coffee beans add a special touch of piquancy. It's very easy to make—just follow the step-by-step recipe and everything will turn out perfectly! This amount of ingredients yields 8 marshmallows, paired together. Serve chilled.
