Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup egg whites see * Note
1 3/4 cups Dutch-process cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 pound walnut or pecan pieces

Steps:

* Note: Rather than cracking a number of eggs, you can buy cartons of liquid egg whites at supermarkets. Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Mix together the egg whites, cocoa, salt and sugar on medium speed until the batter is stiff and all ingredients are well incorporated, about 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the walnuts or pecans by hand. Place the batter by rounded teaspoonfuls onto the baking sheet; work in batches. Bake until the cookies are a bit shiny and slightly cracked, 10 minutes. They will look underdone but do not overbake. This recipe yields 48 cookies. Each cookie: 125 calories; 34 mg sodium; 0 cholesterol; 7 grams fat; 1 gram saturated fat; 17 grams carbohydrates; 3 grams protein; 1.67 grams fiber.
