In our family, we call them "Nothin' Cookies" because they are so light and fluffy. Very addictive!

- 1/4 cup chopped nuts
- 1-2 cup chocolate chips (mini or regular)
Directions
1
Beat egg whites, cream of tartar and salt until soft peaks form. Add vanilla.2
Gradually add sugar, beat until stiff. (Don't over beat though or they get 'tough'!) Fold in chocolate chips and nuts.3

Note: you can also add 2 Tbls of cocoa to make Chocolate Clouds.

I make these, but I remove them from the oven prior to being fully set up, and make a thumb print in them. Then I add canned berries (pie fillers) into the hole, whipped cream from the can around the outside for decoration, and I finish it off with a sprig of chocolate.

I used mini chocolate chips and omitted the nuts. Very light and airy! We love them!
