Time 2h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup blanched slivered almonds, divided
1 teaspoon sugar, plus 1/4 cup
4 egg whites
Pinch salt
1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
1/3 cup mini chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
  • Put 1/4 cup blanched almonds and 1 teaspoon sugar into a food processor and pulse until it resembles cornmeal; reserve. Finely chop the remaining almonds.
  • In a stand mixer with the whisk attachment, beat egg whites and salt until very soft peaks have formed. In a small bowl, stir together the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and espresso powder. With the mixer running on low, slowly add in the sugar and the espresso powder, 1 tablespoon at a time, whipping just to the stiff peak stage, (do not overbeat). Gently fold in the reserved almond flour.
  • With a large offset spatula, spread the meringue batter on the lined baking sheet in an even layer, about 1/2-inch thick. Sprinkle the finely chopped almonds and chocolate chips evenly over the surface of the meringue and bake for 1 hour. Turn the oven off, leaving the meringue in the oven to dry out further and cool for an additional 1 hour.
  • Note: If meringue gets chewy, put it back into a 200 degree F oven for about 30 minutes, turn off the oven and let dry inside the oven while it cools.
  • To serve, break the meringue into pieces. Leftover meringues can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature in a dry cool place for up to 3 days.

The bark didn't turn out as well as I had hoped. The meringue was a bit too chewy and the chocolate was too thick.

This bark was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I'll try making it with less sugar next time.
