Passover Chocolate Chip Cocoa Meringues

An easy to make treat that everyone will enjoy for Passover or year round. Sift powdered sugar over meringues and add fresh strawberries to the dish for a lovely presentation. Works best with mini chocolate chips. Using parchment/cooking paper reduces the risk of burning the bottoms (can use foil instead).

Ingredients

• 0.5 cup white sugar
• 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 pinch salt
• 3 egg whites
• 0.25 cup mini chocolate chips

Steps

1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Sift 1/4 cup sugar, cocoa, and salt into a small bowl.
2. In a large bowl, beat egg whites with an electric mixer until soft peaks begin to form. Mix in remaining 1/4 cup of sugar gradually, and beat until medium-firm peaks form. Sprinkle in cocoa mixture gradually, and continue beating until egg whites are stiff. Fold in chocolate chips. Drop mixture onto baking sheets by rounded teaspoonfuls, spacing about 1 inch apart.
3. Bake in preheated oven for 40 minutes for crispy cookies. Cool cookies on baking sheets.
