large bowl; beat in melted chocolate and egg whites until smooth; wrap in

cut dough in half. (Refrigerate one half.) Roll out dough to a 1/2-inch
thickness between two sheets of wax paper. Remove top piece of wax paper.
Witha 2-1/2 inch round cookie cutter, cut out as many circles from teh
dough as you can. Remove scraps of dough and refrigerate for second
rolling; cut circles in half to make half moon shapes. Carefully remove
cookie halves from bottom sheet of wax paper; place cookies on lightly
greasted cookie sheets; sprinkle lightly with granulated sugar. Repeat with
other half of dough. Use any scraps of dough for second rolling. Let
cookies dry for 3 hours.

Bake in a 400~ oven for 12 minutes or until cookies are browned on the
bottoms. Remove to wire racks; cool completely. Cookies will have an
outside crust but will be soft inside {gosh, doesn't that sound like Al
Martin? <grin> }.
