    Ingredients

    • Egg whites

      2

    • Caster sugar

      120g

    • Walnuts, roughly chopped

      120g

    • Dark 70% chocolate chips

      150g

    • Vanilla extract

      1 tsp

    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.
