Line an 18 x 13 inch/46 x 33 cm baking sheet with parchment paper. Beat 4 room-temperature large eggs, 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar, and a pinch of salt in a bowl with an electric mixer at high speed until soft peaks form. Beat in 1 cup/200 grams granulated white or caster sugar in small increments until it's all been added and you can't feel grains of sugar between your (clean) fingers. Remove the beaters and fold in one 14 ounce/400 gram package of sweetened, shredded coconut. Then fold in 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons/75 grams unsweetened cocoa powder until well combined. Drop by heaping, spiky tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until firm to the touch. Cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before enjoying.
