1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 250 degrees F.

  2. Line non-stick baking sheets with parchment paper or use the Silpat sheets to prevent the cookies from sticking.

  4. In a large bowl using your electric mixer, beat egg whites until foamy.

  5. While beating, add salt, cream of tartar, and vanilla extract.

  7. Drop batter by tablespoonfuls onto non-stick baking sheets.

  8. In a small bowl, combine the remaining 1 teaspoon cocoa and cinnamon.

  9. Using a sieve or a sifter, sprinkle mixture over the non-baked cookies.

  11. Remove from oven and store in a tightly covered (airtight) container.
