Melting Moments Cookies
Melting Moments Cookies show up at almost every special occasion we celebrate with our family and friends. For one thing, these are so easy to make that even the youngest ones can make. Second, you don’t need many ingredients. You don’t even need to go shopping as I’m pretty sure that you already have all ingredients in your pantry. Well, there is nothing special in the ingredients list indeed. Another reason is that they have the advantage of freezing well. What makes these cookies so good is that they literally melt in your mouth!
Melting Moments Cookies can be found at every Turkish bakery as they are one of those very common cookies here. Not all of them are good though. Some of them are too dense and it’s even hard to eat them without drinking something. Good Melting Moments cookies must melt in your mouth. That’s what makes these cookies so irresistible. These are so good that you can’t stop yourself once you have one.
I can hear you. You wonder what make these cookies that scrumptious and how they can melt in your mouth wonderfully. Well, it’s not the butter. Cornstarch is the magical ingredient in these cookies. It has an incredible effect on these cookies! I’m planning to make a chocolate version of these cookies soon and will definitely share the result with you. I’ve made Orange Flour Cookies before and they were amazingly yummy too thanks to cornstarch and orange flavor. I used less butter in them, go check the recipe out if you are after a lighter version.
This is an easy-to-bake eggless sweet treat that you can serve at five o’clock tea parties. These make perfect edible holiday gifts too. Putting extra powdered sugar in a separate bag in the package will make them even more special. Why don’t you make these Melting Moments Cookies for Christmas this year and give your friends in some nice boxes? I just can’t think of a better gift! If you have enough time and patience and if you want to go a little more fancy, you can make some colorful Button Cookies, which really look like buttons and surprise your friends.
