Forgotten Cookies

Forgotten Cookies

They are easy and melt in your mouth and you can change the ingredients to what you have on hand. They are actually meringues.

2 egg whites (room temp is best)
2/3 cup of sugar
1 cup chocolate bits
1 cup nuts, broken
1 tsp. vanilla extract

Beat egg whites until frothy. Add sugar spoonful by spoonful and beat until stiff.

Add chocolate bits and nuts.

Have oven heated to 350°F. Put cookies on foil lined cookie sheets, NOT GREASED.

Put cookies in oven and turn the oven off. Leave overnight or at least 5 hours during the day.

Variations:
  • I use mini chocolate bits and less pecans. I also make them small (teaspoon size), because they are like candy.
  • use coconut instead of nuts
  • or rice crispies instead of nuts
  • I want to try them with a bit of cocoa and crushed candy canes.
  • how about butterscotch
  • or peanut butter bits

Enjoy!
