Ingredients:
4 egg whites
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup miniature chocolate bits
|
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Beat egg whites at high speed until
soft peaks begin to form. Mix in sugar 1 tablespoon at a time; add
vanilla. Beat until stiff peaks form and the mixture is glossy.
Carefully fold in chocolate bits, and either pipe or drop the meringue
from a tablespoon onto a parchment-paper-covered baking pan to form
cloudlike puffs. Put the pans into the oven and turn off the heat.
Forget about the cookies until the next day (hence the name “Forgotten
Cookies”). Remove and store in airtight containers. Makes
about 48 large puffs.
