Step-by-Step Instructions for Forgotten Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Beat the egg whites in a clean, dry mixing bowl until soft peaks form (2-3 minutes).
  3. Increase the mixer speed and gradually add the sugar until stiff peaks form and the mixture is glossy (3-4 minutes).
  4. Gently fold in the vanilla extract and salt into the meringue.
  5. Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips gently, ensuring even distribution.
  6. Dollop the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the tops are golden and crisp to the touch.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
