3 tbsp. butter, softened
3 tbsp. sugar
1 egg white
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1/3 c. all-purpose flour
Write fortunes on small strips of paper; set aside. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Draw two 3 1/2-in. circles on paper; set aside.
In a small bowl, beat the butter, sugar, egg white and vanilla. Add flour; mix well. Spread 1 tbsp. batter over each circle. Bake at 400F for 5-6 minutes or until lightly browned.
Slide parchment paper onto a work surface. Cover one cookie with a kitchen towel. Place fortune in the center of the other cookie; loosen cookie from parchment paper with a thin spatula. Fold cookie in half over fortune strip so the edges meet; hold edges together for 3 seconds.
Place center of cookie over the rim of a glass; gently press ends down to bend cookie in middle. Cool for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack. Repeat with second cookie. If cookies become too cool to fold, return to oven to soften for 1 minute. Repeat with remaining batter and fortunes.
Yield: 10 cookies
