If you are looking for a low cholesterol, gluten-free, melt-in-your-mouth cookie, look no further.
Beat 2 egg whites with, 1/2 tsp. cream of tartar, and a pinch of salt till stiff.
Add 3/4 C. sugar; red or green food coloring (opt.); and 1/8 tsp. peppermint extract, or to taste.
Fold in 1 C. mini-chocolate chips.
Turn on oven to 375°F. Heat for 15 minutes.
On cookie sheet covered with waxed paper, make cookies by the teaspoonful. Place the cookies in the oven.
Turn off oven and leave them in the oven overnight.
You may like to try leaving the cookies white and flavoring them with vanilla or almond flavoring. Feel free to experiment with your favorite flavors.

Don’t make them too early in the day. You will have to leave them in the oven overnight. I hope you enjoy them.
