Almond Cinnamon Clouds

Almond Cinnamon Clouds

4 large egg whites at room temperature
1/4 tsp. cream of tartar
3/4 C. Splenda
1 T. ground cinnamon
2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 tsp. almond extract
1 C. slivered almonds

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment or baking paper. In medium bowl, combine egg whites with cream of tartar, beat with electric mixer till soft peaks form. In separate bowl, blend sweetener and cinnamon. Fold into egg whites the sweetener mix, and add extracts. Then gently fold in nuts. Drop in large spoonfuls (soup spoon size) onto prepared pan, about an inch apart. Bake for 20 minutes or so until dry. Can turn off oven and leave cookies in oven to dry fully (or not). Store in airtight containers to retain crispness (up to a week). Makes about 33 large cookies.
