Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment and spray with non-stick spray. Set aside.

Print out or write your own fortunes on a piece of paper. Each piece should measure about ½ inch by 3 inches long. Set aside.

In a medium bowl, combine the egg white and vanilla. Whisk until frothy and bubbly.

Add in the salt, sugar and flour. Whisk to combine well.

Drop two spoonfuls of batter on your prepared baking sheet, at least a few inches apart. Use the back of the spoon to spread the batter into circles about 3 inches in diameter.

Bake for approximately 5 minutes or until the edges are browned and the center is set.

Immediately upon removing from the oven, use a spatula to work under the edge of the cookie to release it from the parchment. The cookie will be hot - use caution - but it is necessary to shape it immediately before it cools and hardens.

Lay the cookie on your workspace and place the fortune in the center.

Fold the edges over to conceal the fortune in the center.

Place the folded cookie over the edge of a cup to create the crease in the center.

Then immediately place the folded cookie into the cavity of a cupcake pan to hold the shape while it cools.

Repeat with the remaining batter. Only bake 2 cookies at a time to ensure they are folded and shaped before cooling.

Melt and drizzle the chocolate over the fortune cookies, if desired. Top with sprinkles
