Tuiles

I had a fun, little doTERRA essential oils for your valentine party. We made bath salts, shared some massage ideas and the best oils to get you in a Valentining mood. Then of course, we had treats. These were from a little book Robert got me years ago entitled "Chocolate". These were yummy and delicate and fun to make. I filled these with strawberries and cream and drizzled with chocolate.



Tuiles
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted Butter
  • 2 Egg Whites
  • 1/2 cup Sugar
  • 1/3 cup Flour
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • 1/4 cup sliced Almonds
  • Grated peel of 1 Orange

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease two or three baking sheets and a rolling pin. In a small sauce pan, melt butter and cool. In a small bowl, using a fork, whisk egg whites and sugar until mixture is frothy. Sift flour and cocoa into egg whites. Add sliced almonds and orange peel; mix with a fork. Add cooled butter and mix thoroughly.  Drop teaspoons full onto baking sheets leaving 5 inches between each. Using a palate knife spread each spoonful out slightly. Bake in preheated oven one pan at a time, for 8-10 minutes, until edges feel firm. Lift cookies off sheets carefully with a palette knife and place on a rolling pin while still warm. Let sit 2 minutes, until set in a curved shape; transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
