Ingredients
  

Dough
  • 55 g almond flour
  • 110 g powdered sugar
  • 12 g cocoa powder
  • 25 g sugar
  • 2 egg whites
Meringue
  • 1 egg white
  • 50 g sugar

Method
 

Cookies
  1. Sift together the almond flour, powdered sugar and cocoa, and mix.
  2. In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites, gradually adding the sugar, until a stable foam forms.
  3. Fold the dry ingredients into the egg whites in batches and mix gently. Transfer the batter to a piping bag.
  4. Pipe rounds onto parchment paper, leaving about 3 cm between them. Let sit for 15 minutes so the batter spreads.
  5. Bake in an oven preheated to 150-160°C for 12-15 minutes. Peel the cookies off the parchment and let cool.
Meringue and assembly
  1. Set the egg white and sugar over a hot but not boiling water bath and heat to 60°C, whisking constantly.
  2. Remove from heat and whip with a mixer on high speed for 5-10 minutes until stiff peaks form and the mixture cools completely.
  3. Transfer the meringue to a piping bag, pipe onto half of the cookies and cover with the remaining halves. Decorate with chocolate drizzle if desired. Enjoy!

Notes

The cookies can be served right after assembly.
