The one that intrigued you all from the January Menus: the cocoa puff. It is another of those egg white recipes of dubious safety. Of course, there is the plus that it is incredibly low in calories for a dessert that serves 5.

Cocoa Puff

3 egg whites
½ cup sugar
3 tablespoons cocoa
½ teaspoon vanilla

Beat egg whites until stiff. Add one-half the sugar gradually, continuing to beat until very stiff and smooth. Sift cocoa with the rest of sugar and add gradually, continuing to beat all the while. Finally beat in vanilla. Pile into dessert dishes and chill. Serve with cream. 5 servings. The Modern Family Cookbook
