Zubereitung von Chocolate Meringue Recipe
- Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Sift the 1/4 cup cocoa powder through a fine-mesh sieve into a small bowl to remove any lumps.
- Whisk the sifted cocoa powder with 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar until thoroughly combined. Set aside.
- In a clean, dry bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer on medium speed until foamy.
- Add the salt and continue beating until soft peaks form (about 2-3 minutes).
- Gradually increase the mixer speed to high and slowly pour in the remaining 3/4 cup of sugar, a tablespoon at a time, ensuring it is fully incorporated before adding more. (This should take about 2 minutes).
- The egg whites should remain dull; if they become glossy, you're adding the sugar too quickly.
- Once all the sugar is incorporated, the meringue should be very stiff but not dry or grainy.
- Gently fold in the cocoa and sugar mixture in 3-4 additions using a rubber spatula. Be careful not to deflate the meringue.
- Immediately transfer the meringue to a piping bag fitted with a desired tip (or spoon it onto prepared baking sheets) and pipe/shape the meringues.
- Bake for 30 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through for even baking.
- The meringues are done when they are crisp and easily peel away from the parchment. Let cool completely before serving or assembling a cake.
