A Recipe for Low Calorie Cookies

Among the cookies that are lowest in calories are the meringue cookies that are crunchy and taste slightly of eggs. That's because the main ingredient is egg whites - the part of the egg that contains zero cholesterol. Meringue cookies aren't enjoyed by all, and they taste closer to a candy-treat than a cookie-treat while dieting.

The following recipes for ultra low calorie cookies can be whipped up in less than a minute each and require no baking. These aren't gourmet recipes, but they are low in fat and calories, and will help extinguish a cookie craving for a minimal of calories.
