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.

FORTUNE COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180C/160 fan/gas 4 and line a large baking sheet with baking parchment, or use a silicone baking sheet. Write or print fortunes on paper measuring 6cm long by 1cm wide.
• Put the egg whites, vanilla, almond extract, oil and 2 tsp cold water into a bowl and whisk with an electric hand whisk until frothy, 20-30 secs. Measure the flour, cornflour, sugar and a good pinch of salt into a bowl, then sift into the egg white mixture. Whisk everything together until you have a smooth batter-like consistency. Chill the mixture for 1 hr.
• Next, put a tbsp of mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Oil a metal spoon, then use the back of it to swirl the mixture out into a 8-10cm circle. Repeat with another tablespoon of the mixture, to create 2 cookies. Make sure there is space between each cookie as they will spread in the oven. It is best to only bake 2-3 cookies at a time, as you will need to shape them whilst they are hot. Sprinkle 1 of the cookies with black sesame seeds, then bake for 10-12 mins until the edges of the cookies turn golden.
• One at a time remove the cookies with a palette knife once they are out the oven. You want them to still be soft so you can shape them so work quickly. Turn the cookie over so that the sesame seeds are face down and put the fortune in the middle of the circle. Fold the circle in half to secure the fortune and pinch the 2 edges together to seal. Pop the cookie on the rim of a mug or cup and very gently pull the 2 corners down to get the fortune cookie shape. Hold for 10 secs, then transfer the cookies to muffin tins so that they hold their shape whilst cooling completely. Repeat with the remaining cookie mixture.

HOMEMADE FORTUNE COOKIES

Steps:

• Fill a large, heavy bottomed pot with oil only halfway or a third full. You'll want enough oil to submerge the tortillas but don't fill the pot more than halfway full. Heat over medium heat until the oil reached 350 degrees.
• Fold the tortillas in half (check out the pictures in the post for reference) and grab the tortilla in the middle of the arc of the circle side with two fingers. Push the folded side of the tortilla towards the pinched side with your thumb, then bring the ends together to make the shape of a fortune cookie. Secure the ends together with a toothpick.
• Repeat with the rest of the tortillas.
• Once the oil has come to temperature, carefully add 2 or 3 tortillas to the oil. Fry the tortillas, turning over at least once during cooking, until golden brown on both sides about 3-4 minutes.
• Using a metal tongs, lift the tortilla from the oil and drain the oil out from the inside. Be sure to do this well, or you'll have soggy fortune cookies! Place the fried tortillas on a plate lined with paper towels and repeat with the remaining tortillas.
• Once all the tortillas are fried, melt the butter and brush on the tops of the tortillas, then coat generously with the cinnamon and sugar mixture.
• Once the tortillas have cooled, yo can gently remove the toothpicks. Serve immediately or keep on a loosely covered plate until ready to serve, but these homemade fortune cookies are best served freshly made.
