Striped Tuile Rolls image

Light and crisp tuiles are an elegant way to round out your cookie plate, or to serve as a garnish with a dish of ice cream, coffee or tea. This version has a bright red streak which is a nod to the holiday season, but would be just as appropriate for any time of year.

Time 2h25m

Yield about 12 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 large egg whites, at room temperature
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 drops red food coloring

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with a silicone mat. (You can also use parchment paper.) Beat the butter, sugar, vanilla and salt in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the egg whites and beat until incorporated. Reduce the mixer speed to low; add the flour and beat until just incorporated. Transfer 1 tablespoon of the batter to a small bowl and stir in the red food coloring.
  • Spoon 1 tablespoon of the plain batter onto the silcone mat; use an offset spatula to spread the batter into a very thin oval, about 4 by 6 inches. Repeat to make 3 more ovals on the mat. Dip a toothpick into the red batter and drag it diagonally across the ovals to make thin red stripes.
  • Bake until the cookies are set and the edges are just golden, about 7 minutes. Let cool 45 seconds, then immediately loosen the cookies from the baking sheet with an offset spatula and roll each one lengthwise around a chopstick or the handle of a thin wooden spoon to make a tube. Pull out the chopstick and transfer to a rack to cool completely. (You'll need to work quickly or the cookies will harden; if they do, return to the oven briefly to soften.)
  • Repeat with the remaining batter, letting the baking sheet cool completely between batches.
