   Place the chocolate in the top of a double boiler; bring water to a boil. Reduce the heat to low; cook until the chocolate melts. Let it cool to room temperature. Stir in coconut and pecans.

2. 2

   Beat the egg whites and salt at the high speed of an electric mixer until foamy. Gradually add the sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until stiff peaks form and the sugar dissolves (2 to 4 minutes). Fold the egg white mixture into the chocolate mixture.
