Chocolate Macaroons

A great way to use up leftover egg whites!  With Eid Mubarak approaching, I started to bake the classic Hari Raya biscuits and kuihs.  To make these macaroons, I added chocolate chips and chocolate-flavoured cornflakes to the whipped egg whites and icing sugar mixture.  Then, add spoonfuls of mixture into mini paper cases and they are ready to be baked!

Ingredients (yields about 90 to 100 pcs):
6 egg whites
350 g icing (confectioner's) sugar
1 tsp vanilla essence
300 g chocolate chips
375 g cornflakes (chocolate flavoured), to be lightly crushed

Method:
By using a mixer, whisk egg whites and icing sugar until stiff.

By using a spatula, fold in vanilla essence, chocolate chips and cornflakes.  Mix well.

Spoon mixture into mini paper cups and bake in a preheated fan oven at a temperature of 180° C for about 5 to 7 minutes.  Leave to cool down completely before storing in an airtight container.

Happy Baking!
