Directions
Preheat oven to 300 degrees; lightly grease cookie sheets.
Beat the egg whites, coffee, cream of tartar and salt in a medium bowl on high speed until foamy.
Beat in the sugar, one tablespoon at a time, on high speed; continue beating until stiff.
Do not underbeat.
Stir the cocoa until smooth and powdery.
Fold in the cocoa and coconut.
Drop the mixture by rounded teaspoonfuls 1 inch apart on the cookie sheets.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until set.
Cool for 10 minutes; remove from the cookie sheets.
Cool on wire racks.
Sprinkle with additional cocoa or drizzle with melted chocolate, if desired.
