Yield 10 cookies.

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 tablespoons butter, softened
3 tablespoons sugar
1 large egg white
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°. Write fortunes on small strips of paper (3-1/2x1/4-in.); set aside. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Using a pencil, draw two 3-1/2-in. circles on a sheet of parchment. Place paper, pencil mark down, on a baking sheet; set aside., In a small bowl, beat butter, sugar, egg white and vanilla. Add flour; mix well. Spread 1 tablespoon batter over each circle. Bake 4-5 minutes or until lightly browned., Slide parchment onto a work surface. Cover one cookie with a kitchen towel. Place a fortune in the center of the other cookie; loosen cookie from parchment with a thin spatula. Fold cookie in half over fortune strip so the edges meet; hold edges together for 3 seconds., Place center of cookie over the rim of a glass; gently press ends down to bend cookie in middle. Cool 1 minute before removing to a wire rack. Repeat with second cookie. If cookies become too cool to fold, return to oven to soften for 1 minute. Repeat with remaining batter and fortunes.
