Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line one large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Dice the lemon or citron peel. Set aside.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and salt. Stir until the ingredients are well blended together.
- Zest the limes. Combine the zest with the egg whites in a separate bowl. Whisk for 30 seconds.
- Add the egg mixture to the cocoa mixture. Stir until the dry ingredients are completely moistened. The batter will be dark and very gooey.
- Spoon approximately 2 tsp worth of batter onto the prepared baking sheet for each cookie. Leave 2 inches between cookies. Place a piece of lemon or citron peel in the center of each cookie.
- Bake for 12 minutes. The cookies will be glossy on the top.
- Transfer the parchment paper, with the cookies still on it, to a cooling rack. After 3 minutes the cookies should easily peel off of the parchment paper. Cool the cookies to room temperature on a cooling rack.
- Store in an air tight container.
