They may not look like the do in the book but they taste amazing, they were a huge hit and if you have a sweet tooth family you may need to double the recipe.
Need:
2 egg whites
1 cup icing sugar (powered)
1/8 salt (I didnt put this in)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
3 1/2oz chocolate chopped to pea size chunks
- Preheat oven to 180 C/350 F line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Combine egg whites, icing sugar and salt in stainless steel bowl, place over a pan with just-simmering water. Whisk to combine, then continue to whisk until temp reaches 49C/120F
- Take off the heat, add vanilla and using electric whisk, whisk until whites form a stiff peak. fold in chocolate.
- scoop into piping bag (or in my case a sandwich bag with corner cut off) pipe each one about a table spoon size.
- Place in oven with door ajar with wooden spoon, cook for about 20 minutes, you should be able to move them easily around the paper
