Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Whip egg whites in a clean bowl until soft peaks form, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Gradually add granulated sugar and whisk until stiff peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Gently stir in vanilla extract and salt until fully incorporated.
  5. Fold in semi-sweet chocolate chips carefully without overmixing.
  6. Scoop dollops of the meringue onto the baking sheet, spaced 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes until lightly golden and crisp on the outside.
  8. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  9. Allow cookies to rest for at least 4 hours or overnight for best flavor and texture.
