RON'S GLUTEN-FREE CHOCOLATE MERINGUE COOKIES

Provided by Ron Ben-Israel

Time 45m

Yield approximately 40 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

12 ounces bittersweet chocolate, broken into pieces for melting, plus 2 ounces chopped
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch salt
1 tablespoon white vinegar or lemon juice
4 large egg whites
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Steps:

Melt the 12 ounces of bittersweet chocolate pieces in a microwave-safe dish or over a gently simmering double-boiler. Let cool but not harden. Add the vanilla.
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line three baking sheets with parchment paper.
Place the salt and vinegar (or lemon juice) in a clean mixer bowl for a stand mixer. Use a paper towel to wipe off any possible grease. Use the paper towel to wipe the blades of the whisk attachment as well. Do not rinse. This procedure will ensure that the egg whites will whip to their full potential.
Beat the egg whites on medium speed until foamy, about 1 minute. Increase the speed to high. Slowly add the sugar in a steady stream and continue beating until stiff peaks form, 4 to 5 minutes. (The bowl can be turned upside down without the meringue falling out.) Add a third of the meringue to the melted chocolate and mix well to lighten. Gently but thoroughly fold the melted chocolate into the meringue, and then fold in the remaining two ounces chopped bittersweet chocolate and the walnuts.
Fill a large resealable plastic bag with the meringue and snip off the bottom corner, or use a pastry bag. Pipe the meringue into 1 1/2-inch rounds 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
Immediately place in the oven and bake about 10 minutes. The cookies will develop a shiny crust but will still be gooey inside.
Let rest on the baking sheets for 10 minutes before removing to a rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

In Germany they are baked on backoblaten, little round wafers (there are gluten-free ones), but you can bake them directly on parchment paper as well. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

Tips:

Make sure your egg whites are at room temperature before you start. This will help them whip up more easily and give you a better meringue.
Use a clean bowl and beaters when whipping the egg whites. Any grease or residue can prevent the egg whites from whipping up properly.
Whip the egg whites gradually, starting on low speed and increasing the speed as the whites start to foam. This will help prevent them from becoming overbeaten.
Add the sugar slowly, one tablespoon at a time, while continuing to whip the egg whites. This will help prevent the meringue from becoming grainy.
Once the meringue is stiff and glossy, stop beating. Overbeating can cause the meringue to become dry and crumbly.
Use a piping bag or a spoon to shape the meringue cookies. If you are using a piping bag, fit it with a star tip for a classic macaron shape.
Bake the macarons at a low temperature for a long time. This will help them dry out and develop a crispy shell.
Let the macarons cool completely before filling them. This will help prevent the filling from making the shells soggy.

Conclusion:

Schokoladenmakronen, or gluten-free chocolate meringues, are a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for Christmas or any other special occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized with different flavors and colors. With a little planning and preparation, you can make these beautiful and delicious cookies that will impress your friends and family.
