1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa

1 ounce unsweetened chocolate -- coarsely chopped

1/4 cup sifted powdered sugar

1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch

3 large egg whites

1/2 teaspoon instant coffee granules

2/3 cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

 

1. Preheat oven to 325deg. 2. Cover a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper;

secure with masking tape. 3. Combine the cocoa and chocolate in a food

processor, and pulse 4 times or until the chocolate is finely chopped. Add the

powdered sugar and cornstarch, and pulse 2 times or until mixture is

well-blended. Beat egg whites and coffee granules in a medium bowl at high speed

of a mixer until foamy. Gradually add the granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon at a

vanilla. Spoon the egg white mixture into a zip-top plastic bag, and seal.

Carefully snip off 1 bottom corner of bag. Pipe the egg white mixture into 24

the meringues from paper. Yield: 2 dozen (serving size: 1 kiss).

 

Note: Store kisses in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
