How to Make Forgotten Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a clean bowl, whisk the egg whites until soft peaks form, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Gradually mix in the granulated sugar while whisking until stiff peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Gently fold in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt until combined.
  5. Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly throughout the batter.
  6. Scoop dollops of the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving 2 inches between each.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the tops are lightly golden and crisp.
  8. Cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. For best flavor, let the cookies rest for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving.
