Servings: 36
- 3 egg whites
- ⅛ teaspoon cream of tartar
- ⅛ teaspoon sea salt
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 12-ounce package semi-sweet chocolate morsels
- sugar sprinkles for decoration (optional)
Preheat oven to 200 degrees
Add the egg whites, cream of tartar and sea salt to a large mixing bowl, and beat with a mixer until foamy and thick
Gradually add the sugar, and beat until very stiff. Stiff peaks should form when you dip the beaters in and out of the mixture, and they should stay stiff
Slowly fold the chocolate chips into the meringue, using a spatula
Use a tablespoon to drop mixture onto parchment paper-lined baking sheets
Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until cookies are firm to the touch and dry and lift easily off the cookie sheets
Turn oven off and allow cookies to cool gradually in oven for 30 minutes
Store in an airtight container
