Preheat oven to 300u00b0.

To prepare meringues, cover a baking sheet with parchment paper. Draw 8 (4-inch) circles on paper. Turn paper over; secure with masking tape.

Combine egg whites and cream of tartar in a large bowl; beat with a mixer at high speed until soft peaks form. Add salt. Gradually add granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until stiff peaks form. Add 2 tablespoons cocoa, 1/2 teaspoon coffee, and vanilla; beat well. Fold in 1/4 cup cacao nibs. Divide batter evenly among 8 circles on prepared baking sheet; spread to fill circles using the back of a spoon.

To prepare filling, combine 3 tablespoons cocoa, 3 tablespoons boiling water, and 1/2 teaspoon coffee granules in a small bowl, stirring with a whisk until smooth. Cool.
