Experience tradition with these festive Christmas cookies, a cherished family recipe. Packed with chocolate chips, candy cane, and nuts, they make perfect holiday gifts. Baking on parchment paper simplifies cleanup.
Ingredients:
  • 2 egg whites, room temperature
  • 0.125 teaspoon salt
  • 0.125 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 0.75 cup white sugar
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons crushed candy canes
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to a toasty 250 degrees F (120 degrees C) and prepare your cookie sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a clean glass or metal bowl, beat egg whites until foamy. Add salt and cream of tartar, keep beating until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar while beating to stiff peaks. Remove from mixer when meringue is stiff. Stir in vanilla, then fold in candy canes, chocolate chips, and walnuts. Drop heaping teaspoonfuls onto prepared baking sheets. If baking in batches, refrigerate extra dough until ready to bake.
  • Bake for 40 minutes in the preheated oven until easily peeled off the sheet. Cool and store in an airtight tin.
