Fortune Cookie

By avaspapa

Ingredients

• 10 Tablespoon butter, melted
• 8 large egg whites
• 2 cups superfine sugar
• 2 cups flour, sifted
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 6 Tablespoon heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400°F.

Line 2 cookie sheets with a silicone pad or parchment paper. Spray with nonstick cookie spray. Beat eggs and sugar on medium speed in an electric mixer for about 30 seconds. Add remaining ingredients and beat until just incorporated. Pour a spoonful of batter onto left half of prepared cookie sheet. Spread batter with back of a spoon to create a thin circle about 5 inches wide.

Repeat on right half of cookie sheet. Bake about 8 minutes, checking to make sure cookies are not cooking too quickly around edges. Adjust oven temperature, if necessary. Carefully lift cookie off with spatula. Shape quickly by folding in half and then, with thumb and index finger, bend open ends together.

Repeat with remaining dough. When cookies are cool, thread or fold fortunes made out of study paper inside cookie.

Makes 24 cookies.
