Do you have left over egg whites stocked in the fridge? Then it is time to test your baking skill. Lidah Kucing is very popular during the Idul Fitri, Chinese New Year and Christmas back in Indonesia. It is pretty much a crunchy sweet cookie. You can make a little variation while making this cookie by grating cheddar cheese on top of the cookie mixture just before baking them.
