Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
6 egg whites -- room temperature
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3/8 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 pinch salt
18 tablespoons sugar
3/4 cup cocoa powder
Preheat oven to 200°. In a medium bowl, combine egg whites with vanilla, cream of tartar, and salt. Beat until sort peaks form. Beat in 15 tablespoons sugar, 3 tablespoons at a time. Continue beating until meringue is stiff, smooth, and shiny.
Combine remaining 3 tablespoons sugar with cocoa in a sifter and sift over top of meringue. Fold in cocoa mixture until just blended.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. Drop cocoa meringue by tablespoonfuls onto paper, or pipe into 1 1/2 inch rounds with a pastry bag and star nozzle.
Bake about 2 hours, or until meringues are dry and firm and lift easily from paper. Remove from oven and let cool on baking sheet. Store tightly covered in a dry place.

I tried using the pastry bag once and killed the air in the meringue, so although they aren't as pretty, I use a tablespoon. Also, I always seem to come out with more cookies than the recipe says, so adjust points accordingly. For Passover, just leave out the Cream of Tartar. They still come out just fine.
