INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

  • 9 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 10 tablespoons white sugar
  • 3 egg whites
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 6 (1 ounce) squares semisweet chocolate, melted

What to Drink?

Wine Port
Hot Non-Alcoholic Coffee

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease cookie sheets.
  2. In a medium bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg whites one at a time until batter is light and fluffy. Stir in the vanilla. Mix in the flour just until blended. Dough will be a little stiff. Force through a pastry bag or cookie press with a medium star tip onto lightly buttered cookie sheets. Make each cookie about 3 inches long.
  3. Bake for about 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until straw-colored. When cool, dip one end of each cookie in melted chocolate and place on wax paper until chocolate hardens. Store in a cool place.
