Alphabet Cookies

2 egg whites

3/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 ounces milk chocolate

Preheat oven to 350F degrees.

In a bowl, whisk egg whites. Sift corn starch and flour. Add to bowl. Add sugar and vanilla to bowl. Fold dry ingredients in using a large wooden spoon. Then spoon into a plastic zip lock back and seal. Make a small cut in one corner of the plastic bag.

Line cookie sheet with baking paper. Squeeze plastic bag to make letters of the alphabet. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Remove from oven and cool on racks.

Melt chocolate in microwave then spoon into a plastic zip lock bag. Cut a whole and squeeze over each letter of the alphabet.
