Cacao Marshmallows for the SWEET Tooth

Cacao Marshmallows 


I usually have a sweet tooth but these were too sweet for me.  If I make another batch I would cut down on the rice malt syrup and maple syrup for sure.
I adapted the recipe from The Movement Menu here
I swapped the honey for rice malt syrup but only used 2/3 of a cup and I added 2 drops of Wild Orange oil from Doterra.

Life is so busy these days and convenience plays a huge role in the choices we make. Until recently I struggled to work out what to cook for tea and it became a tiresome affair with no help what so ever from my family members.  I'd ask 'What do you want for tea?' and the responses I got went along the lines of; 'I dunno', 'What evers goin' and even 'Don't worry about me'  (that is my hubby to a 'tea').  We even joked about creating frozen meals called ...
