I had trouble getting the cookies to hold their shape. They spread out too much in the oven.

I'm not a big fan of chocolate, but I really enjoyed these cookies. The chocolate flavor is subtle and not overpowering.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover egg whites. I always have a few extra after making a cake or pie, and these cookies are the perfect way to use them up.
