This is a recipe that I am trying to change for the diet. The recipe is from a small book called Gluten Free Recipe; the author is unknown. I am posting it here if anyone has suggestions, ideas, or wants to try it out before me. Disclaimer :cacao is not approved on the strict diet. This is for those who do not have reaction to it.
2 egg whites
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cups sugar (change to xylitol or stevia)
1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips (change to cacao nibblets)
5 hard peppermint candies finely crushed (Change to Sweetleaf peppermint flavored not sure how much to use)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla (change to alchol free vanilla extract)
2 to 3 drops red food coloring (omit)
Chocolate sprinkles (omit)1) Preheat oven to 200 F. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper.
2) Beat egg whites and salt in medium bowl with electric mixer at high speed until stiff, but not dry. Gradually add sugar (xylitol); beat 5 minutes or until stiff peaks form.
3) Gently stir in chocolate chips (cacao nibblets), crushed candies (peppermint stevia, and vanilla extract. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto prepared cookie sheet.
4) Place cookie sheet in oven; turn oven off. Let stand in preheated oven 45 minutes or until dry and crisp. (Do not open oven). Kisses may be left overnight to dry. Store in airtight container.Thanks
