Ingredients :
3 egg whites
1/2 cup icing sugar, sifted
45g unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup plain flour
Method :
Preheat the oven to
a moderate temperature of 180oC. Use baking paper to
line the oven tray. On the baking paper, draw 3 circles with 8cm
diameter. Use a
medium bowl and whisk the egg white until just frothy. Add in the
butter and icing sugar, stir until smooth. Add the plain flour and mix
until smooth. Set aside to stand for 15 minutes.
With a flat-bladed knife, spread 1.5 level teaspoons of mixture over each circle. Bake
in the oven for 5 minutes or until brown slightly around the edges.
Instantly remove
the baked cookies from the tray by sliding a flat-bladed knife under
each. Inside each fortune cookies, place a written fortune
message. Fold the cookie in a triangle shape. Allow to cool on a wire
rack. Repeat with the remaining
mixture. Cook only a few
cookies at a time, otherwise they will harden too quickly and
break when folding into shape. |
