Yield 20-24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 3/4 cups walnut halves
3 cups confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened dutch cocoa, plus
3 tablespoons unsweetened dutch cocoa
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 large egg whites, at room temperature
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350. Spread the walnut halves on a large-rimmed baking sheet and toast in the oven for about 9 minutes, until they are golden and fragrant. Let cool slightly, then transfer the walnut halves to a work surface and coarsely chop them.

  • Spoon the batter onto the baking sheets in 12 evenly spaced mounds, and bake for 14 to 16 minutes, until the tops are glossy and lightly cracked; shift the pans from front to back and top to bottom halfway through to ensure even baking. Slide the parchment paper (with the cookies) onto 2 wire racks. Let cookies cool completely, and store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
