Dragon Sized Fortune Cookies Recipes

DELICIOUS FORTUNE COOKIES

Steps:

• Write fortunes on pieces of paper that are 3 1/2 inches long and 1/2 inch wide. Preheat oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease 2 9-X-13 inch baking sheets.
• In a medium bowl, lightly beat the egg white, vanilla extract, almond extract and vegetable oil until frothy, but not stiff.
• Sift the flour, cornstarch, salt and sugar into a separate bowl. Stir the water into the flour mixture.
• Add the flour into the egg white mixture and stir until you have a smooth batter. The batter should not be runny, but should drop easily off a wooden spoon.
• Place level tablespoons of batter onto the cookie sheet, spacing them at least 3 inches apart. Gently tilt the baking sheet back and forth and from side to side so that each tablespoon of batter forms into a circle 4 inches in diameter.
• Bake until the outer 1/2-inch of each cookie turns golden brown and they are easy to remove from the baking sheet with a spatula (14 - 15 minutes).
• Working quickly, remove the cookie with a spatula and flip it over in your hand. Place a fortune in the middle of a cookie. To form the fortune cookie shape, fold the cookie in half, then gently pull the edges downward over the rim of a glass, wooden spoon or the edge of a muffin tin. Place the finished cookie in the cup of the muffin tin so that it keeps its shape. Continue with the rest of the cookies.

HOMEMADE FANCY FORTUNE COOKIES

Steps:

• Sift the flour. Place the flour and salt in a large bowl. Mix. Rub the butter into the flour with your fingertips until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
• Next add approximately 1/2 of the egg yolk . Mix well using your hands. Try to work quickly.
• Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill for 10 -15 minutes.
• Now take the chilled dough and roll out into a 12 inch square that is about 1/8 inch thick, using a rolling pin. Use a cookie cutter and cut out cookies using your favorite cookie cutter shape (the recipe should make about 25, depending on how big your cutter is).
• Make flower stem: Next cut the remaining dough into strips - 1/8 inch width and 6 inch long. Fold strip in half and twist strip together. I've done this in the photo above.
• Lightly butter a baking tray and then line with oiled or baking sprayed parchment paper. Place the flower stems onto the baking tray.
• Next brush the egg wash on top of the stem.Take a flower cookie and place on the top of the stem. Now make one hole on the top of flower using a toothpick.
• Brush the egg on top of the flowers and stems.
• Bake about 15 minutes at 200 c degrees or until the crust is golden brown.
• Remove from oven and let cool.
• Take a small strip of paper and write your fortune and connect it to the cookie with a piece of string threaded through the hole that you made in the flower. After that decorate.
• Enjoy.

FORTUNE COOKIES

Steps:

• You will also need: 2 1/2 x 1/2-inch fortune strips.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• 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.
• 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.
• Bake for about 5-8 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.

ORANGE CRISPS

Steps:

• Position racks in upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 300°F.
• Coat 2 large baking sheets with cooking spray.
• Mix flour, sugar, butter, orange zest, orange juice and vanilla in a medium bowl until smooth.
• Spread 1 tablespoon of batter into a 2 1/2-inch circle on the prepared baking sheet.
• Repeat with the remaining batter, making 6 cookies per baking sheet, spacing them about 4 inches apart.
• Bake the cookies until lightly browned around the edges, switching the pans back to front and top to bottom once halfway through, 16 to 18 minutes.
• Immediately and carefully transfer the cookies from the pan to a wire rack using a thin metal spatula. Let cool completely.
