Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Chocolate Meringue Cookies Delight.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 300°F (150°C) and prepare a cookie sheet by lining it with parchment paper—this will help your delightful meringues come off easily later.
Step 2
In a clean bowl—glass, metal, or ceramic will do—whisk together the egg whites, a splash of vanilla extract, and a pinch of cream of tartar.
Step 3
Keep beating until soft peaks form, like fluffy clouds in the sky.
Step 4
Now, it’s time to sweeten the deal! Gradually sprinkle in the sugar while you continue to beat the mixture until it transforms into stiff, glossy peaks that look like they could stand tall on their own.
Step 5
Next, gently fold in the cocoa powder and chocolate chips, being careful not to deflate your beautiful mixture—just a few strokes until everything is combined will do.
Step 6
Using a teaspoon, scoop out the meringue and drop it onto your prepared cookie sheet, making sure to leave about an inch of space between each dollop so they have room to spread their wings.
Step 7
Pop the tray into your preheated oven and let them bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the cookies are crisp and inviting on the outside.
Step 8
Once they’re done, take them out and let the cookies cool completely on the sheet—this is the hardest part, but trust me, the wait will be worth it! Enjoy your delicious meringue cookies, perfect for sharing or savoring all on your own!.
