~ into the egg white mixture and the flour mixture and stir until a smooth fortune cookie dough mixture emerges
~ the fortune cookie batter should drop easily of a spoon but not be runny

~ NOW You need to work Quick
~remove the cookie with a spatula and flip it over in your hand.
~ Place a fortune saying in the middle of a cookie.
~ To make the fortune cookie shape, fold the cookie in half
~ carefully pull the edges downward
_ you might want to do that over the edge of your coffee cup, the rim of a glass or a clean spatula
~ if you make a lot of cookies it helps to invest in a cookie fortune mold or better "Fortune Cookie Mold" :-)

~ Toppings can be added for that extra special effect and seasonal celebrations, check here for photo ideas of toppings for personalized fortune cookies

Homemade Cookies Tip

Tip:
easy fortune cookie recipe
~ Try and make only 2 chinese fortune cookies at a time,
until you have really practiced and got speedier at folding because when you take the fortune cookies out of the oven within 20 seconds the cookies become really hard and you will no longer be able to bend them
~ Preheat the oven so that you have an even temperature of heat oven to 425 degrees.
~ It might help to wear some gloves or use some cooking tweezers to pick up the fortune cookies as they tend to be very hot - adult supervision is definetly required with this kid recipe.
~ For special occasion the Big Fortune Cookie or even a Giant Fortune Cookie - it could be a real treat as a special occasion birthday fortune cookie or wedding fortune cookie
