Instructions
Step 1
Start by melting the unsalted butter and set it aside to cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour and powdered sugar to ensure there are no lumps. Next, add the raw egg whites and then the melted butter into the mix.
Using a spatula, mix everything thoroughly until you achieve a smooth consistency. If you like, sprinkle in your choice of spices such as vanilla, ginger, or cinnamon for added flavor.
Step 2
Using a teaspoon, scoop out small amounts of the cookie dough and place them onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
With the back of a spoon, gently spread each scoop to form a thin layer for every cookie.
Step 3
Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (356 degrees Fahrenheit).
Once heated, place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for approximately 3 to 4 minutes, watching closely for the edges to turn a light golden color.
Step 4
As soon as the cookies are out of the oven, carefully fold each cookie over to create a pocket.
Before sealing, tuck in a small prediction or message inside each cookie.
Press the edges together firmly and use a cup's rim to give the cookies a rounded shape.
Step 5
Let the cookies sit at room temperature until they are completely cooled.
Please remember, the cookies will be very hot, so handle them carefully and consider using gloves while working with them.
Servings
Equipment
Opt for sturdy, non-stick baking sheets to prevent the cookies from sticking. Lining them with parchment paper is an extra layer of protection!
A large, wide mixing bowl will help you whisk together the ingredients smoothly. Look for one that has a spout for easy pouring!

Variations
Faq
- Can I use different types of flour for this recipe?
Absolutely! While all-purpose flour gives great results, you can experiment with alternatives like almond or coconut flour. Just keep in mind it may alter the cookie's texture and flavor slightly.
- What if my cookies don't hold their shape when baking?
This could be due to too much moisture in the batter. Try to ensure that your egg whites are not overly watery and that the dough is mixed thoroughly to achieve the right consistency.
- How can I make my fortune cookies less sweet?
To reduce sweetness, you can cut down on the powdered sugar. Keep in mind that this may also affect the texture, so you might need to add a pinch of salt to balance the flavors!
- Can I make these cookies ahead of time?
Definitely! You can prep the dough in advance and keep it in the refrigerator for a couple of days. Just remember to bake them fresh when you’re ready to serve!
- What’s the best way to store these cookies?
Once they’re fully cooled, store your cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. If you want them to last longer, consider freezing them!
- Can I add additional flavors to the dough?
Of course! Feel free to experiment with flavors like almond extract or citrus zest. Just stick to small amounts so your cookies do not become overly wet.
