Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large eggs, room temperature
  • 3 oz (85g) cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. Separate the eggs. Place the yolks in a medium bowl and the whites in a large, clean mixing bowl. Ensure no yolk gets into the whites.
  3. Using an electric mixer, whip the egg whites on medium speed until foamy. Gradually add the granulated sugar, a tablespoon at a time, and continue beating until stiff, glossy peaks form (about 5-7 minutes).
  4. In the medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, softened cream cheese, vanilla extract, baking powder, and a pinch of salt until smooth and creamy.
  5. Gently fold about a third of the egg whites into the yolk mixture to lighten it. Then carefully fold in the remaining whites, taking care not to deflate the batter.
  6. Spoon the batter onto the prepared baking sheet in uniform circles about 3-4 inches (7-10 cm) wide, leaving space between each.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden on top and springy to the touch. Avoid opening the oven door early.
  8. Cool completely on a wire rack. Use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut out sandwich shapes.
  9. Assemble sandwiches with your favorite spread such as jam, Nutella, or cream cheese frosting. Serve immediately or store for later.

Notes

Use room temperature eggs for better whipping. Be gentle when folding egg whites to keep batter airy. Bake at low temperature to prevent collapse. Cool completely before cutting. For dairy-free, substitute cream cheese with coconut cream or plant-based alternative. Avoid opening oven door during baking.
