These meringue cookies have a puffy, fragile exterior and a moist, soft interior. They deliver an enticingly bold, knock-your-socks-off bittersweet chocolate experience.

Dark Chocolate Meringue Drops Ingredients

5 ounces bittersweet chocolate (60-75% cacao), divided
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (preferably Dutch-process), sifted after measuring if lumpy
3 tablespoons cocoa nibs (see Shopping Tip), optional
1/3 cup egg whites (about 3 large), at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 cup sugar, divided (use 1 1/2 teaspoons less if cocoa nibs are omitted)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

As a child I always asked my parents if we could go to a fast food restaurant, the Quick or the MC Donalds.Now when I’m older I still go to fast food restaurants but deep down in my heart I know it’s not healthy and especially not when it comes to losing weight.
But fastfood has become a way for some people, in fact I do not know a country or big city where they have no Mc Donalds restaurant.

Here’s a chicken burger that you can make at home. Not only it has a nice taste, but it’s also very healthy (it has lots of veggies) and it’s only 3 points!
