- In a small bowl, mix butter, sugar, egg white and vanilla.
- Incorporate flour.
- Drop by spoonfull (5 ml) on greased cookie sheet.
- Flatten the cookies (to 3 inches diameter approx) with back of spoon.
- Cook in pre-heated oven at 400 F (or possibly 200 C) for 3-4 min or possibly till sides = golden brown color. Remove from oven.
- With a spatula, remove cookies from sheet.
- Turn them over.
- Put a fortune message in the center of the cookie.
- Fold the cookie in two. Press the sides for a few seconds to make it hold.
- Lift cookie by the two ends, and press its middle against the rim of a glass (will give it its "regular" shape).
- Put each cookie in a muffin mold to make it keep its shape till cool.
- Gives 18 cookies.
- IMPORTANT:I tried cooking the cookies in two batches. Yikes!
- Problem: they "harden" so fast, you can hardly get to fold the the third one after you put the message in it.
- By which time they are so hard you can not fold the rest.
- It is imperative to cook them...2 at a time!
- Unless you have helpers!!!
- Next time, I might try keeping them "soft" using steam.
