Chocolate Meringue Cookies 2016-04-25 Version

Chocolate Meringue Cookies
(2016-04-25 Version)

3 extra large egg whites
1/2 cup Florida Crystals Organic Cane Sugar
14-oz Woodblock Baking Chocolate (74%) chopped, melted and cooled to room temperature

Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.

Preheat oven to 325ºF.

Beat egg whites slowly and when froth forms, add 1/2 of the cane sugar (1/4 cup) and beat on low for 5 minutes.

Add the rest of the sugar and beat on medium until soft peaks form.

By hand, gently fold in melted, cooled chocolate until just blended.

Drop by rounded tablespoonful on parchment paper lined cookie sheets.

Bake 15 minutes.  Take out of oven and cool for 3 minutes on the baking sheet.  The house is going to smell so delicious!

Cool cookies well before storing in airtight container.

Makes about 24, 2 to 2 1/2" cookies.  Best tasting the following day.  The cookies are tender, melt-in-your-mouth with slightly chewy inside.

The Woodblock Chocolate website doesnʻt show the baking chocolate chunks, but if you go to their shop, they have them for sale.
