fortune cookies
1 Answers
I would like to make some fortune cookies - but only as a carrier for the fortunes inside .
I want to use the cookies as a fun way to pass on information and 'in' jokes etc at work .I'm not expecting many people to actually eat the cookie so don't want to go to the trouble of making the proper recipe .
Does anyone know how I can make a thin dough that would twist and stick to itself in a similar way?

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

On a greased cookie sheet, pour 1 tablespoon of batter for each cookie, using the back of the tablespoon, spread out the batter until it is very thin which will be about 3 inches in diameter.
The ingredients should be sufficient for about 6 cookies.
Bake for about 5 minutes or until the edges are lightly brown.
Quickly place your fortune messages in the centre of each cookie and fold the cookie in half enclosing your message, to form a semi-circle.
