Chocolate Meringues

Put the whites of three eggs in a basin with one pound of finely-crushed sugar, beat well for about fifteen minutes; then add three more whites, putting them in singly and beating one up well before another one is added; then mix in two teaspoonfuls of vanilla and three ounces of grated chocolate. Put this in a biscuit forcer, let it drop on a well-buttered baking-sheet, place the meringues in a slow oven and bake for a few minutes.
