Ingredients

  • 3 cups gluten-free powdered sugar
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 1 large egg
  • 4 oz. bittersweet chocolate, chopped
  • 3 Tbsp. cacao nibs

Preparation

Step 1

Place racks in lower and upper thirds of oven; preheat to 350. Whisk powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and salt in a large bowl, then whisk in egg whites and egg; fold in chocolate and cacao nibs. Spoon batter by the tablespoonful onto 2 parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing 2" apart.
Bake, rotating sheets once, until cookies are puffed, cracked, and set just around the edges, 14-16 minutes.
Transfer baking sheets to wire racks and let cookies cool on pan (they'll firm up).

DO Ahead: Cookies can be baked 3 days ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.
