MMMMM---------------------------GLAZE--------------------------------
      3 oz Semisweet chocolate;
           - chopped
      1 tb Shortening
 
  Place egg whites in a large bowl; let stand at room temperature for
  30 minutes. Add vanilla; beat on medium speed until soft peaks
  form. Gradually add sugar, about 2 tb at a time, beating until
  stiff peaks form and sugar is dissolved. Gently fold in cocoa.
  
  Line baking sheets with parchment. Insert a large open star tip
  into a pastry bag; fill half full with meringue. Pipe stars (about
  1-1/4" diameter) onto prepared sheets, or drop by rounded
  teaspoonfuls.
  
  Bake @ 300°F/150°C until lightly browned, 30-35 minutes. Remove
  from pans; cool completely on wire racks.
  
  In a microwave, melt chocolate and shortening; stir until smooth.
  Dip cookies halfway into glaze; allow excess to drip off. Place on
  waxed paper; let stand until set.
