Ingredients
- nonstick spray
- 1 & 1/2 cups bittersweet chocolate chips about 9 ounces, divided
- 3 large egg whites room temperature
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup Additional powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup additional powdered sugar, for rolling
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray, or instead use parchment paper or silpats.
- Melt 1 cup chocolate chips in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds until just melted. Cool slightly.
- Using an electric or stand mixer, beat whites in large bowl to soft peaks (use the whisk if using a stand mixer).
- Gradually beat in 1/2 cup powdered sugar. Continue beating on high until mixture resembles soft marshmallow creme.
- Whisk cocoa, 1 cup powdered sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a medium bowl. On low speed, beat dry ingredients into the meringue. (I switched to the paddle attachment on my mixer here).
- Stir in lukewarm chocolate and 1/2 cup chocolate chips. Dough will become very stiff.
- Place 1/2 cup powdered sugar in a bowl. Roll 1 rounded tablespoon dough into ball; roll in sugar, coating thickly. Place on prepared sheet. Repeat with remaining dough, spacing 2 inches apart.
- Bake until puffed and tops crack, about 10 minutes. Cool on sheets for 5 minutes, then remove to cooling rack.
