List of Ingredients

Recipe
Line three baking sheets with parchment paper or grease and flour sheets. Using a six inch plate trace two circles on each sheet leaving one inch between each circle. In large bowl whisk together egg whites sugar flour butter water and vanilla just until blended. Using three tablespoons batter for each cookie drop on to circles on prepared baking sheet. With metal spatula gently spread batter as thinly as possible to fill circles. Bake one sheet at a time in upper half of 400º oven for 6-8 minutes or until edges are just beginning to brown. Remove cookies from baking sheet and using a metal spatula immediately lift one cookie and place on to lightly greased, inverted tall glass about 1-1/2 inches in diamter. Working quickly lightly shape warm cookie with fingers to creat fluted effect. Let cool completely on glass. Repeat with remaining cookies.
If cookie is too firm to mold return to oven for 15-30 seconds or until softened.
TIP: It is important to work quickly when shaping tulip shells because they're easiest to handle while still warm. If possible line baking sheets with parchment paper for easy removal of the cookies.
Cookie shells can be stored in airtight container for up to two day. Recrisp in 275º oven for one minute.
