Forgotten Cookies

2 egg whites
1/4 teaspoons salt
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 375 F. Beat egg whites and salt until stiff, slowly add sugar, fold in chips. Drop by teaspoons on greased cookie sheet. Turn oven off and let sit for at least 4 hours undisturbed. May add food coloring for festive appearance.

Note: Use pasteurized egg whites or meringue powder to avoid the risk of Salmonella poisoning. The egg whites in meringues do not reach a high enough temperature to kill the bacteria.

I have made these cookies. It is an easy recipe and the cookies are delicate and delicious. I always left my cookies in the oven overnight and then checked them first thing in the morning. You will need to double or triple the recipe as they will go fast when your guests find out that they were "forgotten" and still were delicious. You become a "cookie genius" for this one.
