Directions
Position rack in the center of the oven; preheat to 350° F.
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Whisk all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.
Beat egg whites in a large bowl with an electric mixer until foamy, about 1 minute.
Beat in granulated sugar in a slow, steady stream.
Scrape down the sides, then beat in brown sugar 1 tablespoon at a time.
Beat until smooth, about 3 minutes.
Beat in vanilla and melted chocolate. Stir in the dry ingredients with a wooden spoon until just incorporated.
Drop the batter by tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet, 1½ inches apart.
Bake the cookies until flat yet springy, with slightly cracked tops, 10 to 12 minutes.
Cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Let the pan cool for a few minutes before baking another batch; replace parchment paper if torn or scorched.

These cookies were delicious! Follow the directions about when to take them out of the oven. They were so chewy and chocolatey. I will definitely make them again.
almost 12 years agoWasn't sure about these cookies, the way the batter went on the parchment was a little runny. Coming out of the oven they looked a little flat, but they where very good! I made some ice cream sandwiches with Kemp's fat free vanilla frozen yogurt, and they where fabulous!
