Fresh pasteurized eggs may take longer to whip into stiff peaks. Use a metal or glass bowl that is completely clean and dry. Any fat on the bowl or mixer will prevent the whites from whipping. Allow the eggs to come to room temperature in the shell before whipping. Use a stand mixer or an electric hand mixer. The process could take up to 10 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Servings: ~16 Serving Size: 1 Marshmallow<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>One Marshmallow\u00a0provides ~63\u00a0calories, ~1 gram net carbohydrate, ~2.67 grams protein, ~5.37 grams fat<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Ingredients<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>120 grams or 4 large egg whites (discard yolks) OR 16 grams dried egg whites (reconstitute following packaging directions)<\/p>\n<p>238 grams heavy cream (1 cup)<\/p>\n<p>29 grams or 4 packets unflavored gelatin powder (3 Tbsp)<\/p>\n<p>8 grams arrowroot flour (1 Tbsp)<\/p>\n<p>14 grams Truvia (4 packets or 3 teaspoons)<\/p>\n<p>5 grams pure vanilla extract (1 teaspoon)<\/p>\n<p>Pinch of salt<\/p>\n<p><u><strong>Directions<\/strong> <\/u><\/p>\n<p>1. Prepare a 9&#215;9 inch glass baking dish by lining the bottom with parchment paper. The sides do not have to be lined.<\/p>\n<p>2. Place the egg whites into a large glass or metal mixing bowl and whip on high speed until they have formed stiff peaks. Set the egg whites aside.<\/p>\n<p>3. In a cold pot, whisk together the heavy cream, gelatin, Truvia, arrowroot powder, and salt. Set the pot over medium low heat. Gently heat until the gelatin has dissolved. The mixture will be very thick and sticky.<\/p>\n<p>4. Mix the gelatin mixture into the egg whites by pouring a very slow steady stream of gelatin mixture into the egg whites. While you are pouring the mixture, run the mixer on low speed to incorporate the gelatin into the eggs. Scrape the sides of the bowl once and mix again. The egg mixture should be thick and shiny.<\/p>\n<p>5. Pour the egg mixture into the glass baking dish and refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours. Using a sharp knife, slice the marshmallow into 16 squares. Separate the marshmallows and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>4:1 No-Bake Chocolate Snack Bars from <em>The Keto Cookbook<\/em><\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>*Shared with permission.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-551\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ketovie.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Keto-Cookbook-247x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"247\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ketovie.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Keto-Cookbook-247x300.jpg 247w, https:\/\/www.ketovie.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Keto-Cookbook.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 247px) 100vw, 247px\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Ingredients:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>5.5 grams unsweetened baker\u2019s chocolate (1 piece)<\/p>\n<p>5 grams coconut oil (1 teaspoon)<\/p>\n<p>3 grams truvia (1 packet)<\/p>\n<p>2 grams sunflower seeds, dry roasted (1 teaspoon)<\/p>\n<p>4 grams brazil nuts, ground (2 teaspoons)<\/p>\n<p>5 grams pecans, ground (2 teaspoons)<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Bar Provides: 152 Calories, 1.6 grams net carbohydrate, 2.2g protein, 15.13g fat<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Directions:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1.
