Egg-stra Special Whites

Super Yummy!
These can be quite messy but they are delicious. The only thing I would warn about is the marshmallow fluff has a tendency to melt out of the cookie at room temperatures. I store these guys in the refrigerator and that tends to help and they still taste delicious at the cooler temperatures. I highly recommend this one!
