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 200 C) for 3-4 minutes or until sides = golden
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 until cold.
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 that 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.
