2
large egg whites, at room temperature
1 pinch
freshly ground Kowalski's Sea Salt
½ cup
sugar
1 tsp.
cornstarch
1 tsp.
rice vinegar
¼ tsp.
ground cardamom (optional)
¼ cup
mini dark chocolate chips
¼ cup
finely chopped pistachios, divided
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350°.
- Using an electric mixer, whip egg whites with salt until soft peaks form; add sugar a bit at a time until stiff peaks form.
- Fold in cornstarch, vinegar, cardamom, chocolate and most of the pistachios by hand.
