Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch and salt until well blended. Add in egg whites, egg and vanilla extract and mix until well combined. Fold in chocolate chips. Drop dough by the heaping tablespoonfuls onto prepared baking sheets, spacing cookies 2-inches apart. Bake in preheated oven until cookies are puffed and crackled, about 14 minutes, rotating sheets to opposite rack once during baking. Remove from oven and sprinkle tops lightly with Maldon sea salt if desired. Allow to cool on baking sheet 5 - 10 minutes then cool on a wire rack. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
*If making these gluten-free be sure the powdered sugar and chocolate chips are gluten-free.
