These Triple Chocolate Meringue Cookies are dark, decadent, and bursting with flavour. A crispy chocolate meringue outside, a fudgy chocolate inside, and a delicious spattering of dark chocolate chips. This is the kind of cookie you make to celebrate, or to get that someone special to smile just a little wider than usual. And you know what else? There’s a gluten-free option too!

You may not know this about me, but the universe and I are actually quite close. In fact, the universe tells me some of her secrets. Some of her mysteries. Like the secret to happiness! Now, I wouldn’t be a good bestie to the universe if I just spilled her secrets all over my blog. The secret to eternal happiness is sadly off-limits.

I can however share this recipe for Triple Chocolate Meringue Cookies to make your life just that little bit sweeter. Besides, “most of life’s problems can be solved by a good cookie” – Ina Garten said so! (And in case you’re feeling a little more traditional, here’s a recipe for good ol’ fashioned Chocolate Chip Cookies.)

Oh, and it has a gluten-free option too. And I’m going to quickly explain that to you here. You see, when I first planned this recipe I had intended to make it completely a gluten-free chocolate chip cookie recipe. Alas, fate intervened and I ran out of cocoa powder. I substituted by adding in a ¼ cup of hot chocolate mix (specifically, Camino Original Dark Hot Chocolate mix).

And magic happened.

So, if you’d like this to be gluten-free, all you have to do is switch out the ¼ cup of hot chocolate mix for another ¼ cup of cocoa powder. Keep in mind though that hot chocolate mix includes sweetener, milk powder, and other things too; the texture and taste will likely come out a little different.

I was recently made aware that some brands of vanilla extract are not gluten-free. Just something to keep in mind if you’re going for a gluten-free recipe!

Don’t you just hate it when you completely by accident drop your wireless earphones on to your cookie plate in a perfectly aesthetic manner? …Yeah, er, me too. 😛

You may have noticed some swanky looking earphones in the post photos. They’re called the Vasa Blå. The good people at Sudio sent me over a pair to check out, and they’re pretty nifty. They’re wireless – perfect for my random 10-minute dance-in-the-kitchen parties. And in case you’re interested in getting a pair, use the gift code chocolatesandchai, and you’ll get a 15% discount. Free worldwide shipping too. Yaay!

Description

These Triple Chocolate Meringue Cookies are dark, decadent, and bursting with flavour. A crispy chocolate meringue outside, a fudgy chocolate inside, and a delicious spattering of dark chocolate chips. This is the kind of cookie you make to celebrate, or to get that someone special to smile just a little wider than usual. And you know what else? There’s a gluten-free option too!


Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 cup (6oz) Dark Chocolate, melted
  • 3 Egg Whites, room temperature
  • 1 ¾ cup Icing Sugar
  • ¼ cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • ¼ Hot Chocolate Mix (replace with ¼ cup cocoa powder if GF)
  • 1 tbsp. Cornstarch
  • A pinch of salt
  • ½ tsp Instant Coffee
  • 1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
  • ½ cup (3oz) Dark Chocolate Chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. In a large, vigorously beat egg whites to form soft peaks. In batches, mix in ½ cup icing sugar; continue to form a meringue.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup icing sugar, cocoa powder, hot chocolate mix, cornstarch, instant coffee, and salt.
  4. On low speed blend the dry ingredients and vanilla extract into the meringue.
  5. Fold in the melted chocolate and chocolate chips.
  6. Place ¼ cup icing sugar in a bowl (¼ cup is approximate, the size of your dough balls will impact how much you need).
  7. Roll dough into roughly 1-2 tablespoon-sized balls and coat with icing sugar.
  8. Bake for approximately 10 minutes – until almost completely baked with crackly tops. Cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

    I just made these and they’re amazing! I did find the mixture really wet though. Added a touch more cornflour and icing sugar and that helped.

    If i subsitute 1/4 c. cocoa powder for 1/4 c. hot chocolate mix powder though the taste would be so much stronger – cocoa is unadultrated chocolate and hot chocolate has milk powder and sugar as well… but the quantity substitution is the same? doesn’t make sense.

    Maybe I misunderstood something?

      Hi TD,

      You’re correct…there WILL be a slight difference in taste. I already mentioned this as part of the post, I’ve made the recipe using hot chocolate mix (I like the Camino Dark) and regular cocoa powder, and the difference is not really noticeable as long as all goes well in the mixing stages.

      Hope that helps!
