These cookies are versatile, serving as a standalone snack or a delightful accompaniment to desserts like ice cream.

Place a mixing bowl over a pot of simmering water, ensuring the bowl's bottom doesn’t touch the water.

Add egg whites, sugar, and vanilla extract to the bowl. Stir continuously until the sugar dissolves completely and the mixture becomes warm to the touch.

Step 3: Add Butter and Cheese Powder

Melt the unsalted butter and mix it into the batter until smooth.

Add Soonicorn Cheese Powder, stirring well to ensure the cheese flavor is evenly distributed. This step gives the cookies their signature cheesy undertone.

Step 4: Add Almond Slices

Gently fold in the sliced almonds, ensuring they are evenly coated in the batter. Spread the almonds well for a crispy, uniform bake.

Step 5: Spread the Batter

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the batter thinly (2-3mm thick). Sprinkle sesame seeds if desired for an added crunch.
