Ingredients

  • 3 egg whites, at room temperature
  • 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 3/4 cup granulated, superfine sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 4 tablespoons unsweetened Dutch process cocoa, sifted

Directions

Preheat oven to 200 degrees F. In a large bowl with an electric mixer beat the egg whites until frothy. Add the cream of tartar and granulated sugar 1 tablespoon at a time. Beat until the egg whites are stiff and shiny and the sugar granules cannot be felt in the whites. Beat in the vanilla, reduce speed to low and add cocoa until combined. With a spatula put the egg white mixture into a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe 2-inch meringue "kisses" on a parchment paper lined baking sheet, at least 2 inches apart. Bake in the middle of oven for 2 hours. Turn off oven and leave the meringues in it for at least 2 more hours or until meringues are completely dry.

    I have a 7 year old grand daughter who has food sensitivities and is limited to the kinds of sweets she can eat. This recipe was not only easy for me to make and turned out GREAT but it was also her special sweet treat that she is enjoying. Thank you soooo much for this recipe. Grammy Carol

    These were delicious and super easy to make. I do not like my meringues too sweet so I am going to try these with a little less sugar next time maybe half a cup. Overall, my husband ate every last one of these cookies in one sitting!!!
