Let's Get Started
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Grease a cookie sheet. Write fortunes on strips of paper about 4 inches long and 1/2 inch wide.
- Whisk the egg white and vanilla until foamy but not stiff. Sift the flour, cornstarch, salt, sugar and add to the egg white mixture.
- Stir in the water and vegetable oil until the mixture is smooth.
- Drop the mixture by tablespoons onto the cookie sheet. Tilt the sheet in a circular motion to spread the batter into 4 inch circles.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the edges begin to brown slightly.
- Quickly remove one at a time, place a message in the center, and fold in half. Fold the ends of the half together into a horse shoe shape. Hold in place until the cookie hardens.
