When a cake calls for egg whites, I'm left with all these yolks. What can I do them besides discarding?

I think this was discussed a while back but what I do is make a sugar cookies, I have a recipe that just calls for egg yolks. You could also make a cream pie.

I cook them and feed them to the dog. Not all that healthy, but he loves it!

my mother has always eaten egg-whites only, so her wonderful dog, slippery jim, who passed away a number of years ago, used to happily receive the extra egg yolks beaten up with some milk.

you can also tint egg yolks and use them as paint on sugar cookies (brush on before baking, and the result is a crackly finish).
