Letˇ¦s celebrate the Year of the Pig/Boar with some Chinese Festive foods. Try this recipe!

FORTUNE COOKIES
"Write your own fortunes and place them in cookies. Great for parties.

PREP TIME 15 Min
COOK TIME 10 Min
READY IN 25 Min

Ingredients:
ˇP 3 egg whites
ˇP 3/4 cup white sugar
ˇP 1/2 cup butter, melted and cooled
ˇP 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
ˇP 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
ˇP 1 cup all-purpose flour
ˇP 2 tablespoons water

Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets, or line with parchment paper. Have fortunes ready to go on small strips of paper.
2. In a large glass or metal bowl, whip egg whites and sugar on high speed of an electric mixer until frothy, about 2 minutes. Reduce speed to low, and stir in melted butter, vanilla, almond extract, water and flour one at a time, mixing well after each. Consistency should resemble pancake batter. Spoon the batter into 3 inch circles on the prepared baking sheets. Leave room between for spreading.
3. Bake for 5 to 7 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. If they spring open, place them in a muffin tin to cool until set.
