Making Your Fortune Cookie Vacation Surprise

Start with fortune cookies, you can make a whole bunch of cookies with your own fortunes, or use just a few for this easy vacation surprise. You can get takeout boxes from Amazon that we linked above, or your local chinese takeout restaurant may give you a few next time you visit!

The printable above is for a beach vacation. You could apply it to a cruise or an all-inclusive resort! Are you heading to Hawaii or California? These fortunes could totally be used for those as well. Basically, if there is sunshine and the ocean involved, you can use this printable to announce your vacation. If you happen to be heading somewhere cold and woodsy, just make up your own fortunes to go inside the cookies. The concept works for anything!

Fortune Cookie Vacation Surprise Instructions

Print the beach vacation fortunes onto regular paper. Use color ink.
Cut the fortunes out so that each square is its own little slip of paper. There are a ton of fortunes on this printable.
Feel free to pick your top favs, or use them all for this easy vacation surprise! There is enough variety that everyone would be happy with them.

Now, for the fun part of your easy vacation surprise! Place your steamer pot on the stove. Fill it with about 2 inches of water. Bring it to a boil.

Unwrap the cookies and place them into the pot. It works best to only steam about 4-5 cookies at a time. It’s too hard to work with more than that without the cookies getting too soft and things getting crazy.

The cookie gets soft as it sits in the steam. It takes about one minute.
Remove the cookies one at a time. Use tongs, they are hot! Open the cookie and pull out the fortune paper.
Then, quickly slip your easy vacation surprise fortunes into the cookie and fold it back into the right shape. Hold it in place for about 45 seconds. The cookie will get hard again as it cools.

Repeat the process until you have stuffed all the cookies with your new vacation fortunes. Who knew you could soften up a fortune cookie?

You can gift the cookies in a Chinese takeout box. Slip them into the box and tie them off with a ribbon or bow. Or, you could make it a total surprise and order Chinese dinner and serve your special, easy vacation surprise cookies as dessert! Either way, excitement and joy are sure to be in your stars.
