Best Tulipe Cookies Tuile Batter Recipes

TULIPE COOKIES (TUILE BATTER)

Steps:

• 1. Melt the butter and place in the bowl of a mixer fitted with a paddle. Add the sugar and blend until almost smooth.
• 2. Add the flour and blend until smooth. With the mixer running, add the egg whites very slowly. Beat until blended, but do not incorporate air into the batter.
• 3. Strain the batter through a china cap or mesh sieve and set aside to cool completely.
• 4. Coat several sheet pans with melted butter or line with silicone mats. Spread the patter to 6 inch circles on the pans. Bake at 400F until the edges are brown and the batter is dry, approximately 12 to 18 minutes.
• 5. To shape into cups, life the hot cookies off the sheet pan one at a time with an offset spatula. Immediately place over an inverted glass and tip with a ramekin or small bowl. The cookies cool very quickly, becoming firm and crisp. The cookie bowls can be used for serving ice cream, crème brulee, fruit or other items.

TUILES

Steps:

• In an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter at medium speed until creamy, about 30 seconds. Add the confectioners' sugar and flour and mix until combined. Add the egg whites one at a time, beating after each addition just until well blended, about 1 minute in all. Refrigerate the batter for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Have a rolling pin at hand. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray or line it with parchment paper.
• Spoon 2 teaspoons of the batter onto the baking sheet and with a small, offset metal spatula, spread it evenly into a 3-inch circle. Repeat to form more tuiles, baking only 6 to 8 at a time. Refrigerate the remaining batter while you bake the tuiles.
• Bake the tuiles for 4 to 6 minutes, until lightly browned around the edges. Remove from the oven and immediately shape the tuiles, lifting up each one with a metal spatula and draping it over the rolling pin so it curves, just until set. Repeat with the remaining batter. Store the tuiles in a cool dry place in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

WHITE TUILE BATTER

Steps:

• Sift flour into a mixing bowl, and set aside.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and sugar on medium speed, until well-combined, about 2 minutes. Beat in egg whites, one at a time, beating for 4 minutes after each addition. Add the reserved flour, and mix until just combined.
• Reserve 1/2 cup batter; place in a pastry bag fitted with a #2 tip, and set aside for piping chocolate tuile cookies.

PINK TUILE COOKIES

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together cream and jam until well combined; set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together confectioners' sugar, flour, and salt; make a well in the center. Add butter, egg whites, and reserved cream mixture. Stir until well combined. Add food coloring, one drop at a time, stirring after each addition to combine. Refrigerate, covered, at least 2 hours or up to overnight.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line two baking sheets with nonstick baking mats (such as Silpats).
• Place template ( flower or circle) on baking sheet. Spoon a heaping tablespoon of batter into center of template. Using an offset spatula, spread batter over template into a very thin layer; remove template. Repeat process three times. Bake just until brown around edges, 4 to 6 minutes.
• When cookies come out of the oven, use a long offset spatula to quickly transfer cookies, one at a time, to a work surface; gently form into desired shapes; transfer to a wire rack, and let cool completely. Repeat process with remaining three cookies. If they harden too quickly, return baking sheet to oven for 30 seconds. Repeat with remaining batter. Cookies can be stored between layers of waxed paper in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days.
