MELTING MOMENTS II

Steps:

• Combine dry ingredients. Cream butter until fluffy. Add to flour mixture and beat thoroughly.
• Refrigerate 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Shape dough into 1 inch balls. Place about 1 1/2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Flatten with lightly floured fork. Bake for about 20 minutes or until edges are just lightly browned. Don't overbake.

MELTING MOMENTS (BUTTER COOKIES)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 170C/325F/Gas 3. Line a baking tray with parchment paper or a silicone mat, and set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the butter, vanilla, and sugar until creamy and combined.
• Add the cornflour, flour, and salt, and mix to form a smooth, soft dough.
• Roll the dough into small 0.7oz balls, and place them onto the prepared baking tray. Press them down with the tines of a fork. Freeze until solid - about 10 - 20 minutes.
• Bake for 15 - 20 minutes or until firm and just starting to colour around the edges (they'll still be very pale). Allow to cool for 5 - 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

MELTING MOMENTS (CORNSTARCH COOKIES OR BUTTER COOKIES)

Steps:

• In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and confectioners' sugar.
• In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of your stand mixer cream the butter until smooth and lighter in color. Add the dry ingredients and mix until all of the dry ingredients are incorporated. Cover and chill for 1 hour.
• Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and shape the dough into 1-inch balls. Place them onto a parchment paper or silicone mat lined baking sheet with about 2 inches of spacing between the cookies.
• Press down firmly to flatten the cookies using a dampened fork. Bake in the middle of your oven's center rack for 18-20 minutes or until the cookie bottoms just begin to turn a light golden color.
• Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack to cool completely. Dust with confectioners' sugar once cooled (or the sugar will melt) if desired.

MELTING MOMENTS

Steps:

• Mix butter, flour and powdered sugar.
• Roll into balls the size of ping-pong balls.
• Place on cookie sheet and flatted to about 1/2 inch.
• Bake at 425* for just a few minutes until the edges just begin to show color (really watch them closely!) When cool, frost with the icing mixture on the FLAT side- to create a sandwich cookie.
• (You can just frost the cookie tops to double the cookie total. Also, you may substitute almond extract and a touch of red coloring for the cherry juice).
