Fruit-Flavor Marshmallows
"A fun thing to do with kids. The marshmallows can be any flavor you want -- as long as jello comes in that flavor! An electric mixer is a must for this recipe, unless you have great stamina and patience!"

They've not yet chilled, but have appeared to work. I love this marshmallow recipe because there's no thermometer involved. I'm envisioning raspberry flavored rice crispy treats with mini-chocolate chips! Or lime & white chocolate smores!
