Chocolate macaroons

topcook.tomathouse.com

Ingredients:

  • 2 egg whites
  • 1 cup ground almonds
  • 3 tbsp cocoa
  • 1.5 cups powdered sugar

Preparation:

  1. Preheat oven to 205°C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or, better yet, a silicone mat.

    Mix the egg whites (without beating them) with the ground almonds, cocoa and powdered sugar until you have a sticky but stiff mixture.
  2. Fill a large bowl with cold water and wet your hands. Then, roll the dough into walnut-sized balls. You may need to re-wet your hands as you go.
  3. Place the balls on a lined baking sheet and bake in the oven for 11 minutes. It's difficult to tell when they're done, as they'll appear soft but firm up slightly as they cool.

    AnywayThey should be moist inside, which will keep them chewy. So don't worry if the cookies look sticky on the bottom.
