Ingredients

cooking spray
1 cup finely chopped bittersweet chocolate
3 egg whites, at room temperature
2 cups confectioners' sugar, divided
0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon cornstarch
0.25 teaspoon salt
0.5 cup chopped dark chocolate
0.25 teaspoon coarse sea salt

Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray 2 baking sheets with cooking spray.
Step 2

Melt bittersweet chocolate in top of a double boiler over simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
Step 3

Beat egg whites in a large bowl using an electric mixer until soft peaks form; gradually beat in 1 cup confectioners' sugar until mixture resembles soft marshmallow creme.
Step 4

Whisk 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt together in a bowl. Beat confectioners' sugar mixture into egg white mixture on low speed until a soft meringue forms. Stir in cooled melted bittersweet chocolate and dark chocolate until dough becomes stiff.
Step 5

Place remaining 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar in a bowl. Roll 1 rounded tablespoon of dough into a ball and roll ball in the confectioners' sugar, generously coated all sides. Repeat with remaining dough and sugar. Arrange cookies 2 inches apart on the baking sheets and sprinkle coarse salt over each.
Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven until tops start to crack, 9 to 10 minutes. Cool cookies on the baking sheets for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
