How do fortune cookies taste like?

Fortune cookies don't really have a distinct taste that people can easily describe. They are primarily crispy and sweet.

Here's a breakdown of the taste:

* Crispy: The cookie itself is thin and wafer-like, offering a satisfying crunch when bitten.

* Sweet: They are generally made with a simple sugar-based dough. The sweetness can range from subtle to slightly intense depending on the recipe.

* Vanilla: Some recipes incorporate vanilla extract, adding a delicate, pleasant aroma and flavor.

* Other flavors: Occasionally, you might find fortune cookies with a slight almond or sesame flavor, but this is less common.

Ultimately, the taste of a fortune cookie is quite subtle, and it's often the texture (the satisfying crunch) and the surprise of the fortune that make them enjoyable.
