Flourless chocolate-cranberry crinkle cookies

Recipe adapted from King Arthur Flour

Yields 48

Ingredients:

• 2-1/4 cups gluten-free powdered sugar, plus extra to dust with
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup cocoa powder, Dutch-process preferred
• 3 egg whites
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 1 cup gluten-free chocolate chips
• 1 cup dried cranberries

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper and lightly grease the top of the paper.
2. Mix all the ingredients together so the batter becomes smooth. This makes a very soft batter.
3. Drop the batter onto the baking sheets, by about 2 teaspoons' worth.
4. Bake for about 8 minutes. The cookies will spread and crinkle slightly.
5. Remove from the oven, keep them on the baking sheets and allow them to cool completely.
6. Once completely cooled, dust with powdered sugar if you’d like.
