Directions:
- Early in day or up to one week ahead:
- Lightly grease and flour large cookie sheet
- In small bowl with mixer at high speed, beat egg whites and cream of tartar to soft peaks. Sprinkl in sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating well after each addition until sugar is dissolved; beat in almond extract. (Whites should stand in stiff, glossy peaks.)
- Spoon meringue into large decorating bag with large writing tube. Pipe meringue onto cookie sheet into 30 mounds, each about 11/2 inches in diameter, to resemble mushroom caps. Pipe remaining meringue upright onto cookie sheet into thirty 11/4-inch lengths to resemble mushroom stems. Bake in 200°F. oven 13/4 hours. Turn oven off; let meringues stand in oven 30 minutes longer to dry. Cool completely on cookie sheet on wire rack.
- With tip of small knife, cut a small hole into center of underside of mushroom cap. Place small amount of melted chocolate in hole; spread underside of cap with chocolate. Attach stem to mushroom cap by inserting pointed end of stem into hole in underside of cap; repeat with remaining caps and stems. Let chocolate dry, about 1 hour. Store mushrooms in tightly covered container. Just before serving, sprinkle tops of mushrooms lightly with cocoa. Makes 30 mushrooms.
