Chocolate and Gold Fortune Cookies
INGREDIENTS
16 purchased Chinese fortune cookies
5 ounces semisweet chocolate
Edible gold dust, to decorate
DIRECTIONS
Melt the chocolate in a metal bowl over simmering water, being careful not to scorch it. Stir with a rubber spatula until completely melted and smooth.
Let the chocolate cool slightly then, holding a cookie firmly between your thumb and index finger, dip the bottom of it half way into the melted chocolate. Lay on a sheet of parchment and repeat with the remaining cookies. Sprinkle with gold dust before the chocolate sets. Store in an airtight container and use within 2 weeks of making.
