[StoneGRMI]

Thats what I was wondering when reading that too. Whatever it is it sounds kind of gross.

Let me just say that I tried this recipe last night and it was horrible. But since I'm on a strict cutter, and in desperate need of something resembling a cookie, I didn't give up on it. This is what I came up with and I think it's damn good given what there is to work with. Tastes like a crispy cinnamon marshmallow now.

Ingredients:

6 egg whites
1 tsp vanilla extract (I only used 1/2 tsp, trying to be as strict as possible, still good)
1/2 tsp cream of tarter
10-14 packets of splenda
Cinnamon (magic ingredient baby, trust me)

Direction are basically the same but with a couple key adjustments, outlined in bold.

1. Put egg whites and cream of tarter in large bowl and mix until foamy.
2. Add vanilla and Splenda and beat for 1 minute
3. Once fluffy beat on high until the mixture folds into goop.
4. Spoon onto PAM sprayed baking sheet(leave room between as these will expand when cooking.
5. Place in oven at 325 degrees.
6. After 5 minutes take out and sprinkle cinnamon on every individual cookie.
7. Place back in oven for another 12-15 minutes depending on size of cookie (smaller cookies= 12 min, and larger= 15 min).

The two basic problems with the original recipe was that it called for way too much splenda. Made me freakin sick. So by dropping the splenda considerably it gave it a much more of a cracker/cookie taste. Then the cinnamon brought in the flavor. Also, 15 min at 300 degrees left it too soft. But at 325 degrees for 17-20 minutes, it's crispy on the outside and still a lil soft in the middle. Cinnamon Marshmallow Cookie, enjoy.

Oh, almost forgot.
Makes 20-30 cookies depending on size.

[shrello]

cream of tartar is an ingredient used to stabilize eggs so they dont sepperate out of your batter

[zimmy]

Only problem I see with these recipes is after all is said and done you really dont have too much protein.

So here's my version of these, sorta.

(small batch)

4 egg whites
1 tsp. vanilla extract (i use organic, tastes better)
2/3 cup splenda (more or less, depending on how sweet you want them)

Beat the egg whites and vanilla with mixer until it forms "peaks" and then gradually add the splenda about a tablespoon at a time.

Drop mixture by the tbsp onto a greased (Pam) cookie sheet (or onto parchment paper) and bake in the oven @ 325 for 20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned. Transfer to a wire rack for cooling! Pretty yummy! (and no "cream of tartar" ugh)
