Ingredients

Scale
  • 100 grams egg whites
  • 100 grams granulated sugar
  • 100 grams almond flour
  • 100 grams powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/3 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (for filling)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a double boiler, whisk together egg whites and granulated sugar until warm and frothy (about 1–1.5 minutes). Transfer to a stand mixer and whip until stiff peaks form.
  3. Sift almond flour, cocoa powder, and powdered sugar into the meringue. Gently fold until the batter flows like slow-moving lava.
  4. Pipe circles onto the prepared sheets and let them rest for about 30 minutes before baking for 13 minutes.
