FORGOTTEN COOKIES
These meringues are crispy on the outside and marshmallow-y on the inside, with bits of chocolate throughout. The best part of this recipe is that you turn off the heat once the cookies go in the oven, so you can truly forget about them until the morning. A spring-loaded ice cream scoop makes fast work of forming the meringues and you can use any size you like.

Steps:
- Position 2 oven racks in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
- Beat the egg whites and salt in a large bowl on medium speed until frothy. Add the cream of tartar and increase the speed to medium high. Beat in the sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, then add the vanilla extract. Continue beating until the meringue is thick, glossy and holds stiff peaks, about 6 minutes. Gently fold in the chocolate chips with a rubber spatula.
- Using a spring-loaded ice-cream scoop (or 2 spoons, using one to nudge the meringue off the other), scoop the meringue into mounds about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Sprinkle each cookie with a few more chocolate chips.
- Put the baking sheets in the oven, then immediately turn off the oven. Let the meringues stand in the oven until dry, at least 4 hours and up to overnight.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat egg whites until foamy. Add the cream of tartar and beat until fluffy but not at all dry. (Be careful not to over beat.) Add the sugar gradually, about 3 tablespoons at a time. When 1/2 of the sugar has been added, add the vanilla extract. Continue beating and adding remaining sugar in batches, until all of the sugar is dissolved and the meringue is very shiny and tight. Gently fold in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts. Working one teaspoon at a time, push a teaspoonful of meringue from the tip of 1 teaspoon with the back of another teaspoon onto the lined baking sheets, leaving 1-inch of space between cookies. Place baking sheets in the preheated oven and turn the oven off. Leave the cookies (undisturbed) in the oven for at least 2 hours and up to overnight, or until cookies are crisp and dry.

FORGOTTEN COOKIES-DIABETIC
I haven't tried this recipe yet but I couldn't pass up posting it because I don't want to lose it and others might enjoy a "legal" cookie recipe. I'm totally guessing at the yield. Zaar is listing the calorie and fat content (mostly fron the nuts) for a dozen cookines. Dividing 12 into that amount breaks down to each cookie having 33.5 calories. If you wish to lower it more just use less nuts.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°.

Tips:
- Chill the dough before baking: This helps the cookies to hold their shape and prevents them from spreading too much.
- Use a cookie scoop to portion the dough: This ensures that the cookies are all the same size and shape, which helps them to bake evenly.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set: The centers of the cookies should be slightly soft when you take them out of the oven. They will continue to cook as they cool.
- Let the cookies cool on a wire rack before storing them: This helps to prevent them from becoming soggy.
- Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Forgotten cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a batch of cookies that will disappear before you know it.
