While beating to the frothy stage, add salt, cream of tartar, and vanilla extract.
After reaching the frothy stage, add the
cocoa/sugar mixture (1 tablespoons at a time) while continuing beating until the egg whites are

sifter, sprinkle mixture over the non-baked cookies.
Bake 90 minutes; turn off the oven, open the door slightly
(secure with a wooden spoon), and allow cookies to cool in the oven. Remove from oven and
store in a tightly covered (airtight) container.
