8 Calorie Chocolate Kisses(The Wonderful Taste Of Chocolate With No Cholesterol Or Fat.) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 egg whites (room temperature)
1/2 tsp. cream of tartar
1 c. superfine sugar

Beat egg whites in a small bowl at high speed until foamy; add cream of tartar and beat until egg whites hold stiff peaks when beaters are lifted from mixture.
Beat in sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time.
When all sugar has been added and mixture holds stiff peaks but is still glossy, gently fold in sifted cocoa, 1 tablespoons at a time.
(Do not beat meringue after stiff peaks are formed.) Spoon kisses by scant teaspoon, 1 inch apart, onto an ungreased nonstick baking sheet.
Bake in a preheated 275\u00b0 oven for 20 minutes or until kisses are \"dry\" to touch.
Cool on pan before removing.
When completely cool, store in a dry, airtight cookie tin.
