Method
STEP 1
Thoroughly heat oven to 180°C, making sure it’s completely hot. Line baking sheets with foil.
STEP 2
In a large, scrupulously clean bowl, beat egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff, then gradually add the sugar until thick and glossy. Gently fold in the nuts, chocolate and vanilla.
STEP 3
Spoon heaped teaspoonfuls of mix onto the prepared trays, leaving space to spread. Once all trays are full, (this mixture will fill 3 trays), place into the fully heated oven then turn it off. Trust us: this unique method works well.
STEP 4
Leave without disturbing overnight.
STEP 5
Next morning, carefully lift the cookies away from the foil and store in an airtight container. These keep really well: if the weather’s humid and they become a little soft, reheat oven thoroughly, pop the cookies back on trays, turn off and leave 3-4 hrs until crispy again.
