About
This is a winter hors d'ouvre often served in France at holiday parties. They make a lovely presentation, and better yet, they are amazingly yummy! It's easy to make these ahead and bring to a party. It's a bit time consuming, but the children can help by stuffing the marshmallows for you! Bon appetit!
