The curved shape of these cookies makes them a wonderful garnish for ice cream or other desserts. They are named after the traditional curved roof tiles (tuile is French for “tile”) seen in France and elsewhere in the Mediterranean, and are easy to make except when it is humid, as the dampness in the air will cause them to wilt. You can purchase specially designed pans for making tuiles, but I find it is just as easy to drape them over a rolling pin or an empty wine bottle.
