These were okay tasting to me, but the kids and their friends ate the whole plate. A friend whose children are on the gf/cf diet could even have them since they didn't have the standard butter in them and I used coconut oil instead of butter on the dish. I also used a 9x13 instead of a 9x9 and there was plenty for the larger dish. I couldn't imagine it in a 9x9. It took longer than 5-6 minutes for the marshmallow mixture to beat to stiff peaks---maybe 10 minutes.
