Ingredients

    6 egg whites
    1/4 tsp. salt
    1/4 tsp. cream of tartar
    1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
    1/4 cup, plus 1 tsp. unsweetened cocoa
    1/2 cup granulated sugar
    1 tsp. ground cinnamon

Directions

Preheat oven to 250 degrees F. Line non-stick baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a small bowl, combine the 1/4 cup cocoa and sugar together; set aside.

In a large bowl using your electric mixer, beat egg whites until foamy/frothy. While beating to the frothy stage, add salt, cream of tartar, and vanilla extract. After reaching the frothy stage, add 1/4 cup of the cocoa and sugar 1-2 tablespoons at a time while continuing beating until the egg whites are stiff and glossy.

Drop batter by tablespoonfuls onto baking sheets (1-inch apart). In a small bowl, combine the remaining 1 teaspoon cocoa and cinnamon. Using a sieve or a sifter, sprinkle mixture over the non-baked cookies.

Bake 90 minutes; turn off the oven, open the door slightly, and allow cookies to cool in the oven. Remove from oven and store in and airtight container.

Makes 50 cookies.
