Pink Cookies - Meringue Jello Cookies image

This recipe has been in my In-law's family for a very long time. Every holiday they are made for parties. They are the first cookie that is gone!!! This is a low calorie cookie - that even for Weight Watchers (WW) they are about 1 point for 2 smallish cookies!!!

Time 8h15m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 egg whites
1 teaspoon white vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
3 1/2 tablespoons red gelatin powder
3/4 cup sugar
1 cup chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Carefully seperate egg whites from yolks - ANY yolk left in the egg whites and you will not be able to make the meringue!
  • In a clean dry bowl whip egg whites, white vinegar and salt until stiff (but not dry!).
  • Add in sugar and jello powder (Traditionally we use Red Jello - such as raspberry or Cherry -- ).
  • Fold in chocolate chips
  • On buttered cookie sheet, drop spoonfuls of meringue - I do smaller, bite sized cookies.
  • Bake on a buttered cookie sheet for 30 minutes at 250* then turn off the oven and let them sit there over night.
  • Do not peek or open the oven! They will turn out soft and chewy!
  • Preparation time is to make the meringue - Cooking time is total time to make!
