Recipe for Melting Moments cookies
This recipe has been adapted from a famous chef. I have made minor changes to it.
Recently I prepared these cookies when my daughter wanted to gift her dear friend with some homemade cookies on her birthday.
As the name suggests these cookies melt in the mouth. The procedure is simple without any complications. No sifting is required.
Ingredients
- 100 gms yellow butter (softened),
- 200 gms plain flour,
- 75 gms vanilla custard powder,
- 80 gms icing sugar,
- 1 cup white butter (softened),
- 1 ½ tsp baking powder,
- 1 tsp vanilla essence.
How to make
Soften both the yellow and white butter in a mixing bowl. Add the icing sugar and essence. Mix well.
Add all the other ingredients one by one and bring them together with a light hand. Let it rest for 5 minutes.
Lightly dust the baking tray. Make 30 to 36 small balls and keep them in the baking tray (not very close to each other as they will rise when baked).
I have baked these cookies in a 32 litres microwave in convection mode. As I couldn’t fit all the cookies in one tray I used my small cup cake moulds for each cookie.
Mark the cookies with a fork. Bake in a preheated oven at 180oC for 20 minutes.
Let them cool. Store in an airtight container.
Tips
- Handle the dough with light hands.
- Do not knead the dough.
