Beating it too long was probably our mistake. We will definitely try these again. Thanks for your advice. Beating it too long was probably our mistake. We will definitely try these again.

Did you make them on a humid day? Make sure to add the sugar a bit at a time. Don't beat too long- perhaps the heat from overbeating began to melt the sugar. I can't think of any other suggestions, but I hope you get them to work. They are so yummy! Karen-

Is there a trick to using egg whites? All seemed OK until we added the maple sugar and then the mixture turned back to liquid. We didn't want to waste it (we tried it twice) so we put it into a mini muffin tin to bake. They are edible but are really spongy and dense. Any tips to get them puffy?
