Forgotten Cookies

Method

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line cookie sheets with parchment paper.

2. 2

   Beat egg whites and salt in a large glass or metal bowl until foamy. Gradually add sugar, beating continuously until stiff, glossy peaks form. Fold in vanilla extract, chocolate chips, and peanuts, if using.

3. 3

   Drop rounded spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 1 inch apart.

4. 4

   Place the cookies into the preheated oven. Immediately turn the oven off and leave the door closed. Let cookies stand in the turned-off oven for 5 to 6 hours or overnight, until dry and crisp.

5. 5

   Remove cookies from the oven and store in an airtight container.
