Title: Mocha Meringue Sandwich Cookies
Categories: Cookies, Chocolate, Snacks
Yield: 24 servings

3 lg Egg whites; room temp
1 ts Instant coffee granules
1/2 c Confectioners' sugar
1/4 c Baking cocoa
1/4 ts Cream of tartar
3/4 c Sugar
3/4 c Chocolate frosting
Additional confectioners'
- sugar

Set oven @ 350ºF/175ºC.

Place egg whites in a large bowl. In a small bowl, sift
coffee granules through a fine sieve to break up,
pressing with a spoon as needed. Sift together 1/2 cup
confectioners' sugar, cocoa and coffee.

Add cream of tartar to egg whites; beat on medium speed
until foamy. Gradually beat in sugar, 1 tablespoon at a
time, beating on high after each addition until sugar is
dissolved. Continue beating until stiff glossy peaks
form. Fold in coffee mixture.

Transfer meringue to a pastry bag fitted with a #11
round pastry tip. Pipe 1-3/4-in. spirals 1 in. apart
onto parchment-lined baking sheets.

Bake meringues until set and dry, 12-15 minutes. Cool
completely before removing meringues from paper.

To assemble, spread about 1 1/2 teaspoons frosting onto
the bottom of half of the meringues; cover with
remaining meringues. Dust with additional confectioners'
sugar.
