You will need:
  • 1 egg white
  • 1/8 tsp vanilla
  • 1/4 c flour, all purpose
  • 1/4 c granulated sugar

*Preparation Tip: Fortunes should be written on paper—4 inch long by 1/2 inch wide. Make sure to grease cookie sheets well when baking fortune cookies.


Preparation

  1. In mixing bowl, mix egg white and vanilla extract just until foamy.

  2. Add flour and sugar into egg white mixture and mix well.

  3. Place 1 – 1 1/2 tsp of batter on cookies sheet, tilting sheet to form batter into round shapes. Batter shapes should be about 3 inches wide. Cookies should be placed at least 4 inches apart on cookie sheet.

  4. *Preparation Tip: Be careful not to make too many at one time, as the forming process after baking requires cookie to be hot, and they cool quickly.

  5. Bake in 400 F oven for about 5 minutes, or until edges turn golden color.
