  1. 1

    Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Generously grease two cookie sheets with cooking spray.

  2. 2

    Write fortunes on paper strips about 4 inches long and 1/2 inch wide.

  3. 3

    Mix the egg white and vanilla in a bowl until foamy but not stiff. Sift in the flour, sugar, and salt; stir until combined.

  4. 4

    Drop two spoonfuls of batter at least 4 inches apart onto one prepared cookie sheet. Tilt the sheet to spread the batter into 3-inch circles.

  5. 5

    Bake in the preheated oven until the cookies are pale in the center and golden on the outer 1/2-inch edge, about 5 minutes.

  6. 6

    Remove the cookies from the oven. Quickly lift one cookie with a wide spatula and place it upside down on a wooden board. Put a fortune on the cookie near the center and fold the cookie in half around the paper.

  7. 7

    Hook the folded edge over the rim of a measuring cup or coffee mug and pull the pointed ends down, one inside the cup and one outside. Place the cookie in a muffin tin or egg carton to hold its shape as it cools. Repeat to shape and fill the second cookie.

  8. 8

    While the first batch bakes in Step 5, repeat Step 4 to make two more cookies on the second cookie sheet. As you shape the first batch in Step 6, bake the second batch. Repeat until all cookies are baked and shaped.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products

easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.

The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.

Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.

For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
