"Cookies low in carb but high on taste, look no further because I've got em! Depeding on how big you make them and which ingredients you use, this entire recipe contains about 20gr of carbs. So that's about 1,5 gr of carb per cookie! You can substitute the hazelnut for peanut butter if you like."

Add the baking powder and the salt. Then you add the chocolate chunks.
When your batter is done, gently fold in the egg whites. This will give your cookie it's height and yummyness.
