Compliments to the Mathis Family for this wonderful recipe! It is nice to have something different sometimes- and these are light and fluffy like no other cookie I have ever tasted!
Prep time: 20 minutes
Bake time: 20-25 minutes
4 egg whites
1/4 tsp cream of tarter
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cup sugar
chocolate chips (as many/little as you like)
Beat egg whites, cream of tarter, salt and vanilla until soft peaks form. This can take about ten minutes. Once soft peaks form, gradually at sugar, and beat until soft peaks form again. Add chocolate chips, and spoon out onto a cookie sheet covered with a brown paper bag cut to fit the cookie sheet.
Bake at 300 F for 20-25 minutes, just as they are starting to turn golden brown, they are done!
***Tips: When working with egg whites, makes sure NO yoke gets into them. Also, use a metal bowl and metal beaters, and make sure there are completely clean. The tiniest bit of leftover grease, etc. can throw off the chemistry of these delicate cookies! :)
I used to make these years ago and they were always a hit. I forgot about this recipe until recently. I'm going to a cookie exchange party this year so I'm going to make them.
