Homemade Fortune Cookies
Food Ingredients:
2 egg whites cup sugar 4 tablespoons melted butter cooled 1/2 cup flour 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon almond extract 1/2 teaspoon lemon extract 6 fortune strips – (2 1/2″ by 1/2″)
Recipe preparation:
1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 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. 2 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. 3 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 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. 4 This recipe yields 6 cookies.
