Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350. Grease large cookie sheet

In large bowl with wire whisk, beat egg whites, confectioners' sugar and flour until well blended. Beat in melted butter, vanilla and salt.

Make 2 cookies by dropping batter by heaping tablespoons, 4 inches apart, on prepared cookie sheet. With narrow metal spatula, spread batter to form 4 inch rounds. Bake cookies until golden around edges, 5 to 7 minutes.

Place two 2 inch diameter glasses upside down on work surface. With spatula, quickly lift 1 hot cookie and gently shape over bottom of glass. Shape second cookie. When cookies are cool, transfer to wire rack. If cookies become too firm to shape, return them to cookie sheet and place in oven to soften slightly.

Repeat with remaining batter. Store shells in airtight container at room temperature. To serve, place on dessert plates and fill with ice cream.
