Before you begin

Prep time:
Cook time: 400*F
Yields: 12-15 cookies

Additional information:
My mom would make these cookies, along with No Bakes, for Christmas dessert. The best time to make them is right before bed because you leave them in the oven overnight. Mom says the best way to beat the egg whites are when they are room temperature in a metal bowl, freshly washed and dried.

Ingredients

  • 2 egg whites
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup dates/nuts optional

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400*F.

  2. Line two cookie sheets with foil and set aside.

  3. In a medium sized metal bowl, beat egg whites until stiff (stiff= you are able to dip a spoon into the egg whites and when you take it out, it leaves a peak).

  4. Gradually add sugar while beating.

  5. Gently fold in chocolate chips (and any additional ingredients).

  6. Spoon mixture onto cookie sheets in cookie sized portions.

  7. Put the cookies into the oven and turn the oven off.

  8. Leave over night and, for goodness sake, don't peek!

  9. In the morning you'll have delicious treats!
