Ingredients
- 3 egg whites
- ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
- ¾ cup sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¾ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the egg whites and cream of tartar and whip on high speed until soft peaks form. Then slowly add the sugar and continue to whip until stiff peaks form. Add the vanilla extract and whip until combined.
Using a rubber spatula, fold in the chocolate chips.
Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, drop the cookies onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden brown. Allow to cool completely before serving.
Notes
If you’re making this recipe vegan-friendly, you can use aquafaba instead of egg whites. Aquafaba is the liquid from a can of chickpeas and it whips up just like egg whites.
For even more flavor, you can add a pinch of salt to the egg whites before whipping.
If you’d like to dress up your cookies, you can add a sprinkle of sea salt or drizzle of melted chocolate.
