Fortune Cookies Recipe
Serves 6 cookies
Serves 6 cookies
Ingredients:
• 1 egg
white
•1/8
teaspoon vanilla extract
•1 pinch
salt
•1/4 cup
unbleached all-purpose flour
•1/4 cup
white sugar
Directions:
1.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Butter a cookie
sheet and write fortunes on strips of paper about 4 inches long and 1/2 inch
wide. Generously grease 2 cookie sheets. Mix the egg white and vanilla until
foamy but not stiff. Sift the flour, salt, and sugar and blend into the egg
white mixture.
2.
Place teaspoonfuls of the batter at least 4 inches
apart on one of the prepared cookie sheets. Tilt the sheet to move the batter
into round shapes about 3 inches in diameter. Be careful to make batter as
round and even as possible. Do not make too many, because the cookie have to be
really hot to form them and once they cool it is too late. Start with 2 or 3 to
a sheet and see how many you can do.
3.
Bake for 5-7 minutes or until cookie has turned a
golden color 1/2 inch wide around the outer edge of the circle. The center will
remain pale. While one sheet is baking, prepare the other. Remove from oven and
quickly move cookie with a wide spatula and place upside down on a wooden
board. Quickly place the fortune on the cookie, close to the middle and fold
the cookie in half. Place the folded edge across the rim of a measuring cup and
pull the pointed edges down, one on the inside of the cup and one on the
outside. Place folded cookies into the cups of a muffin tin or egg carton to
hold their shape until firm.
Serve and
