Time 50m

Yield 6 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 egg whites
1/3 cup sugar
4 tablespoons melted butter, cooled
1/2 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoons almond extract
1/2 teaspoon lemon extract
2 1/2 by 1/2-inch fortune strips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a cookie sheet thoroughly.
  • Whip the egg whites on low speed until light and foamy. Blend in the sugar and continue to beat until soft peaks form.
  • Pour in the melted butter, flour, salt, and extracts; mix until well combined. Drop a tablespoon of the batter onto the prepared cookie sheet. Using the back of a spoon, spread the batter evenly into very thin 3-inch rounds. Alternatively, use the lid of a jar with a 3-inch circle punched out as a template, pour the batter in the ring, and remove. Because you must work quickly to shape these cookies, bake just 3 at a time.
  • Bake for about 5 to 8 minutes or until the edges are a light golden color.
  • Remove the cookies with a spatula and place on a work surface. Lay a fortune in the lower middle of the cookie, and gingerly (they will be hot) fold in half to make a semi-circle. Bend the edges up toward each other to make a crescent. Drag the crease across the rim of a small measuring cup, with the ends facing down. Cool in mini muffin tins to hold shape until crisp. Repeat with remaining batter.

Time 50m

Yield 12 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 pinch of cardamom
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
2 large egg whites
Nonstick cooking spray, for the baking sheet

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, salt and cardamom. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the extracts and egg whites. Sift in the dry ingredients and whisk it -- whisk it good -- until you have a smooth batter.
  • Grease a baking sheet with cooking spray. Spread 1 tablespoon of batter into a 3-inch circle on the baking sheet (it helps to use the lid of a mason jar as a guide); make 2 more circles on the baking sheet (only bake 3 circles at a time so you have time to mold the cookies before they cool). Bake until the edges are brown, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Working quickly (but carefully, so as to not burn your fingers), use a spatula to flip a circle over. Place a fortune in the center, fold the circle in half and then pick it up and bend the folded side over the edge of a bowl to form a fortune cookie shape. Place in a muffin tin so the shape holds while it cools. Repeat with the remaining circles. Bake and mold the remaining batches.

FORTUNE COOKIES

This is a great recipe that came from the Food Network, so I wanted to post it here (I was looking for a really good fortune cookie recipe on here). One thing, I did find that when I used the recommended tablespoon in putting the batter on the cookie sheet, the centers of the cookies were too "doughy" and the edges were golden brown, and the cookies broke when I tried to bend them into the fortune cookie shape. So, using a rubber bowl scraper, I put a small amount on the cookie sheet and just swirled it around until it was a nice, thin layer, about 3-inches in diameter. This worked perfectly! But, when the recipe says only make a few at a time, it's no joke! These harden quickly and unless you've got others in the kitchen to help or you move with lightning speed, I suggest only making 2 or 3 at a time.

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 strips paper, each 1 by 3 inches
1/2 cup flour
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup cooking oil
1/4 cup egg whites
1 1/2 teaspoons water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Write individual fortunes on strips of paper. Sift flour, cornstarch, sugar, and salt into a medium bowl. Add oil, egg whites, water, and vanilla extract; stir until smooth. Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Bake 1 cookie at a time. Drop 1/4 cup batter onto an oiled baking sheet; spread evenly to make an 8-inch circle. Bake until cookie turns light golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes. (Don't allow edges to become overly brown or cookie will crack when folded.) Using pot holders to protect your hands, immediately remove hot, pliable cookie from baking sheet and place a fortune in center. Fold cookie in half to form a half-moon, then grasp ends of cookie and gently pull together to crease. Hold folded cookie for a minute to maintain its shape as it cools and becomes crisp. Repeat with remaining batter.
