But, these little kisses of magically yummy cuteness have definitely earned a place in my heart–er, stomach? Whatever.

And, I honestly think it’s in their delicate cake.

Gasp!

I know…but it’s so delicate and fluffy.

Because of the egg.

Yeah, it’s a lot of egg.

Three egg whites and a whole egg–a looooootta egg.

But it’s totally worth it.

Because, again: FREAKING MOIST.

Just waiting to be bitten into and devoured in two teeny-tiny little bites.

I love ’em.
