Easy Tuile Leaves Recipes

EASY TUILE LEAVES

Steps:

• Sift together confectioners' sugar, flour, and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the center. Add butter, egg whites, cream, and vanilla. Stir until well combined; strain through a fine-mesh sieve. Refrigerate, covered, at least 2 hours or up to 2 days.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Place a leaf stencil in corner of a nonstick baking mat. Using a small offset spatula, spread batter in a thin layer over stencil. Carefully lift stencil. Repeat filling baking mat with leaves. Transfer baking mat to a baking sheet. Bake until tuiles are golden, 6 to 8 minutes. Using a small offset spatula, lift cookies and quickly drape over a rolling pin to cool, if desired.
• Repeat process with remaining batter. Store leaves in an airtight container at room temperature up to 2 days.

TUILE LEAVES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with a Silpat baking mat. In the bowl of an electric mixer, whisk egg white and sugar on medium speed until combined, about 30 seconds. Reduce speed to low; add flour and salt. Beat to combine. Beat in butter, cream, and extract, about 30 seconds.
• Place a leaf stencil in corner of prepared baking sheet. Using a small offset spatula, spread batter in a thin layer over stencil. Carefully lift stencil. Repeat, filling baking sheet with leaves. Bake until tuiles are golden, 6 to 8 minutes. Using a small offset spatula, lift cookies, and quickly drape over a rolling pin to cool.
• Repeat process until all batter is used.

TUILE BISCUIT

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Into a large bowl, sift together the flour and sugar.
• In a small bowl, mix the egg whites and butter together. Slowly add to dry ingredients. Mix so all lumps are removed.
• Using a silicone mat, lay out a stencil (whatever shape you desire), and spread batter with a pallet knife so the batter is the same thickness as the stencil.
• Place in the freezer for 3 to 4 minutes and remove. Run a knife around the inside edge of the stencil, making sure not to alter the shape of the biscuit.
• Bake on a sheet pan for 4 to 6 minutes until lightly brown around the edges.
• Remove from the sheet pan with a metal spatula, as biscuit will continue to bake on hot pan. Serve.

TUILES

Steps:

• In an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter at medium speed until creamy, about 30 seconds. Add the confectioners' sugar and flour and mix until combined. Add the egg whites one at a time, beating after each addition just until well blended, about 1 minute in all. Refrigerate the batter for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Have a rolling pin at hand. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray or line it with parchment paper.
• Spoon 2 teaspoons of the batter onto the baking sheet and with a small, offset metal spatula, spread it evenly into a 3-inch circle. Repeat to form more tuiles, baking only 6 to 8 at a time. Refrigerate the remaining batter while you bake the tuiles.
• Bake the tuiles for 4 to 6 minutes, until lightly browned around the edges. Remove from the oven and immediately shape the tuiles, lifting up each one with a metal spatula and draping it over the rolling pin so it curves, just until set. Repeat with the remaining batter. Store the tuiles in a cool dry place in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with a nonstick baking mat (such as Silpat).
• Put egg white and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Mix on medium speed until combined, about 30 seconds. Reduce speed to low. Add flour and salt; mix until just combined. Add butter, cream, and almond extract; mix 30 seconds.
• Place a 4 1/4-inch leaf stencil in corner of baking sheet. Using a small offset spatula, spread batter in a thin layer over stencil. Carefully lift stencil. Repeat, filling sheet with leaves.
• Bake until golden, 6 to 8 minutes. Lift cookies with a small offset spatula, and quickly drape over a rolling pin to cool. Repeat with remaining batter. Cookies can be stored between layers of parchment in an airtight container at room temperature up to 2 days.

VANILLA OR CHOCOLATE TUILES

Steps:

• Beat butter and sugar together with an electric mixer on medium-high speed. Beat in the egg whites, one at a time. Beat in the vanilla.
• Lower the speed and add the flour or flour-cocoa mixture (see Cook's Note) and mix until just combined. Do not overmix. Cover bowl and chill for at least 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Cut a small hole (about 3 1/2 inch diameter) in a thin piece of cardboard or plastic to serve as a template in forming the tuiles. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicon mat and place the stencil on it. Using a small off-set spatula, place a small amount of the batter in the center of the hole of the stencil and spread it out evenly. Carefully lift the stencil off. Repeat for more cookies.
• Bake in preheated oven until lightly brown around the edges, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and while still hot, remove tuiles from the pan and drape them over a rolling pin. Allow to sit a few minutes to harden and cool. Store in an airtight container.
