Nite Nites

Plan to make these at night and they will be done in the morning. Otherwise, just make these and eat takeout so you don’t have to use your oven the day you make them! Also note: these cookies are very fickle, but worth every attempt you make! Seriously though, I’ve tweaked the recipe so it’s not as unpredictable.

Preheat oven to 375 F. In the bowl of a standing mixer (or use a handheld mixer, but it might take longer) on low speed, whip egg whites until foamy. Then slowly add the sugar, beating on medium speed until stiffer soft peaks form. Beat in vanilla. Use a rubber spatula and fold in the chocolate chips.

Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil. Drop batter by the teaspoon full onto the un-greased foil about 1/2 inch apart. It’s best to get all of the cookies on one sheet, otherwise they don’t cook well.

Set cookie sheet in the oven and immediately turn the oven off. Let the cookies sit for 8 (sometimes I forget and it’s more like 10!) hours. By then the cookies should be dry and able to peel off of the foil (and ready to shove in your face). Enjoy!
