Marshmallow

Description

The recipe won't take much time. The only difficulty in preparation is using a kitchen thermometer, which not everyone has. Without it, the syrup might not turn out right. The finished marshmallow is slightly chewy, as it should be. It's very delicious—I guarantee you'll love it. Serve chilled.
