Forget 'em Cookies

Searching for some GF Christmas Cookie recipes and I stumbled across this one in Southern Living's "Our Best Christmas Recipe" book. It's easy to play around with the variety of candy chips (butterscotch/white chocolate, etc) or nuts you decide to use as well, so it's very versatile. Did not include cooking time because it's passive.

• Ready In: 30 mins
• Yields: 4 1/2 dozen cookies

Ingredients

• 2  egg whites
• 1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1⁄4 teaspoon cream of tartar (GF brand)
• 1⁄2 cup sugar
• 1 (6 ounce) package  semisweet chocolate morsels
• 1  cup  chopped pecans

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350. Beat first 3 ingredients at high speed, using an electric mixer, until foamy. Gradually add sugar, 1 T at a time, beating until stiff peaks form and sugar dissolves (2-4 min). Fold in chocolate morsels and pecans.
2. Drop mixture by heaping teaspoonfuls onto cookie sheets lined with aluminum foil. Place in over, and turn off heat immediately. Do not open door for at least 8 hours. Carefully remove cookies from foil. Store cookies in an airtight container up to 1 week.
