I used a load of egg yolks for a different cookie recipe so I needed to make something to use up the leftover egg whites.
I decided to make them pink for that extra cuteness.

① Preheat the oven to 110°C.
② The colour will fade slightly and the cookies will turn slightly golden when baking so try to aim for a slightly brighter pink colour when adding the dye.
③ Cooking time will vary depending on the model of oven so please adjust accordingly. Recipe by usagirisa
