CHEWY CHOCOLATE SNOWCAPS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325 degrees. Whisk together sugar, cocoa and salt. Stir in chocolate and pecans. Beat egg whites until slightly stiff, then stir into chocolate mixture until just until incorporated. (Do not overmix.) You can use a stand mixer on low or a sturdy spoon and a large bowl.
• Crush sugar cubes and place in a shallow bowl. Using a small ice cream scoop or a melon baller, spoon up dough to create a scoop about the size of a golf ball. Lightly dip the top of the cookie into the sugar and then place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, about 2 inches apart.
• Bake until cookie tops are dry and crackled, about 12 to 15 minutes. Rotate sheets if using more than 1 at a time. The cookies should be dry and crunchy on the outside, chewy on the inside and capped with a nice sprinkling of chunky sugar.
