Chocolate-forward with a nice crunch from pecans, these cookies boast two types of chocolate with a delightfully crisp outside and a rich, fudgy interior. Pro tip: Make sure to whisk the egg whites until they are very foamy--this gives the cookies the 'lift' they need.

- Sift together powdered sugar, Ghirardelli Premium Baking Cocoa, and salt in a large bowl. Whisk egg whites in a separate bowl until frothy, about 1 1/2 minutes. Stir egg whites and vanilla into powdered sugar mixture. Batter will be very thick. Stir in Ghirardelli Bittersweet Chocolate Chips and toasted pecans until well combined.
