Chocolate Meringue Cookies

 cookies

I am a follower of the Weight Watcher program and am learning to cook in a more healthy way.  I made these Chocolate Meringue Cookies today as they are a low point food, high in protein and low in sugar.  This batch made 30+ cookies with only 1/2 cup of sugar!

The cookies turn out with a melt in your mouth texture.  I tried one after it cooled from baking and it was chocolatey good.  I hear they become more chewy after a day or two and some prefer that taste.

  3. A neighbor made these and took them to my friend's house who just lost her husband. I had one on Friday and LOVED it and hoped to somehow find out how to make them. So...you can imagine how happy I am to find the recipe here. Thank you sweet friend! I'll definitely make these when my Mom and aunt come soon. I don't dare make them until I have someone else to help me. (George isn't a big chocolate lover...silly man)

    Hugs,
    Kat
