Steps:
- Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Cream the butter in a large bowl with a wooden spoon or in a stand mixer until it is soft. Add the sugar and keep beating until the mixture is light and fluffy. Sift in the flour and add the optional ingredients, if you're using them. Bring the mixture together with your hands in a figure-of-eight motion until it forms a dough. You can freeze the dough at this point.
- Roll the dough into walnut-sized balls and place them slightly apart from each other on a baking sheet (you don't need to butter or line it). Flatten the balls a little with the palm of your hand and bake them in the oven for around 10-12 mins until they are golden brown and slightly firm on top. Leave the cookies on a cooling rack for around 15 mins before serving.

Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Write fortunes on pieces of paper that are 3 1/2 inches long and 1/2 inch wide.
- Preheat oven to 300 F. Grease 2 9-X-13 inch baking sheets .
- In a medium bowl, lightly beat the egg white, vanilla extract, almond extract, and vegetable oil until frothy, but not stiff.
- Sift the flour , cornstarch, salt, and sugar in a separate bowl. Stir the water into the flour mixture.
- Add the flour to the egg white mixture and stir until you have a smooth batter. The batter should not be runny but should drop easily off a wooden spoon.
- Place level tablespoons of batter onto the cookie sheet, spacing them at least 3 inches apart. Gently tilt the baking sheet back and forth and from side to side so that each tablespoon of batter forms into a circle 4 inches in diameter.
- Bake until the outer 1/2-inch of each cookie turns golden brown, and they are easy to remove from the baking sheet with a spatula (14 to 15 minutes).
- Working quickly, remove the cookie with a spatula and flip it over in your hand.
- Place a fortune in the middle of a cookie.
- To form the fortune cookie shape, fold the cookie in half, then gently pull the edges downward over the rim of a glass, wooden spoon or the edge of a muffin tin. Place the finished cookie in the cup of the muffin tin so that it keeps its shape. Continue with the rest of the cookies.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 180C/160 fan/gas 4 and line a large baking sheet with baking parchment, or use a silicone baking sheet. Write or print fortunes on paper measuring 6cm long by 1cm wide.
- Put the egg whites, vanilla, almond extract, oil and 2 tsp cold water into a bowl and whisk with an electric hand whisk until frothy, 20-30 secs. Measure the flour, cornflour, sugar and a good pinch of salt into a bowl, then sift into the egg white mixture. Whisk everything together until you have a smooth batter-like consistency. Chill the mixture for 1 hr.
- Next, put a tbsp of mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Oil a metal spoon, then use the back of it to swirl the mixture out into a 8-10cm circle. Repeat with another tablespoon of the mixture, to create 2 cookies. Make sure there is space between each cookie as they will spread in the oven. It is best to only bake 2-3 cookies at a time, as you will need to shape them whilst they are hot. Sprinkle 1 of the cookies with black sesame seeds, then bake for 10-12 mins until the edges of the cookies turn golden.
- One at a time remove the cookies with a palette knife once they are out the oven. You want them to still be soft so you can shape them so work quickly. Turn the cookie over so that the sesame seeds are face down and put the fortune in the middle of the circle. Fold the circle in half to secure the fortune and pinch the 2 edges together to seal. Pop the cookie on the rim of a mug or cup and very gently pull the 2 corners down to get the fortune cookie shape. Hold for 10 secs, then transfer the cookies to muffin tins so that they hold their shape whilst cooling completely. Repeat with the remaining cookie mixture.

- Choose Your Flavor Profile. Before I even start delving into creating the recipe, I always decide on a flavor profile. I feel this sets the tone for what kind of cookie I want to create.
- Choose Your Cookie Style. After choosing the flavor profile choose your cookie style and texture. The most common kind of cookie is what I refer to as “drop cookies.”
- Choose your Fat. Almost all cookie recipes start with a fat or a fat substitute. A fat (or fat substitute) is important for the structure of the cookie, the moisture in the cookie, and sometimes the flavor.
- Choose a Sweetener. If you’ve made cookies enough times, I’m sure you notice that they almost all start with creaming a fat and sweetener together.
- Choose Binders/Leavening Agents. Not all cookies need a binder or leavening agent, though most cookies do. Eggs are the most common binder but also do some leavening in the cookie as well as adding tenderness and moisture.
- Add Salt and Liquid Flavorings. Notice how I didn’t give you the choice about salt? In my mind it isn’t a question if there will be salt in my cookie recipes.
- Choose a Flour. Flour is a no-brainer. All cookie recipes, minus a very few flourless recipes, have some kind of flour! All-purpose if the most common flour used, but there are other great options depending on the texture you are looking for!
- Add Mix-ins. After the dough is the desired consistency, add any mix-ins (chocolate chips, nuts, dried fruit, etc…) For this size of recipe about 3/4 cup – 1 1/2 cups total mix-ins typically works well.
- Baking Time and Temp. Cookies are usually baked in at a temp somewhere between 325-375 degrees F. A lower cooking temp will allow the fat to melt slowly before the cookie sets usually resulting in a flatter cookie.
- Make Fillings or Frostings if Desired. Always fill or frost cookies when completely cooled.
