Yield Makes 5

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1/3 cup confectioners' sugar, sifted
2 large egg whites, room temperature
1/2 cup all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Trace a 6 1/2-inch circle onto a large, flexible plastic lid, such as one from a coffee can. Using scissors, cut lip from lid. With utility knife, cut out circle shape to make stencil.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and sugar on medium speed until fluffy, about 5 minutes. Beat in egg whites, one at a time. Add flour, and beat to combine.
  • Line a baking sheet with a Silpat (French nonstick baking mat) or parchment paper. Place stencil on mat. Using an offset spatula, spread a thin layer of batter over stencil. Gently remove stencil. Repeat, making one more circle. Bake until golden around edges, about 4 minutes. Working quickly while tuiles are still warm, use a spatula to remove from baking sheet, and drape each cookie over a coffee cup. Cover with a clean kitchen towel, and gently press to help form cup shape. If cookies cool before shaping, return pan to oven for about 20 seconds. Spread and bake remaining batter.
