Steps

1

Preheat oven to 310°F. Allow eggs to warm to room temperature.
2

Combine powdered sugar, almond flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Sift and remove large pieces.
3

Crack egg whites into a mixing bowl, and whip on medium until foamy and opaque. Add cream of tartar, then continue to whip until meringue holds a shape.
4

Add baker's sugar one tablespoon at a time, and whip on medium-high until meringue holds stiff, glossy peaks.
5

Add dry ingredients to meringue and fold until fully incorporated. If the batter is too runny, add more powdered sugar until it barely drips from the spoon.
6

Pipe one inch circles of meringue on a baking sheet, then allow to sit for 30 minutes until tops are completely dry.
7

Bake at 310°F for approximately 15 minutes.
