Butter and cocoa melting moment biscuits (improved recipe 3)



Melting moments, what a fancy name they've given the biscuit!
Ingredients (for 30-35 biscuits):
  1. 200g butter, softened
  2. 50g icing sugar
  3. 1 tbsp of vanilla extract
  4. 185g plain flour
  5. 50g cornflour
  6. extra cocoa powder and icing sugar for finish
  • Take the butter out of the fridge and let it come to room temperature and become VERY soft, this is important! 
  • Beat the butter and sugar and vanilla together until smooth
  • Sift the plain and cornflour and mix all together until smooth again (N.B. don't beat too hard and over mix)
  • If you are feeling fancy and want a nicely shaped biscuit, pipe it into shapes of desire (I was never very good with my piping, hence the shape of my products) onto a piece of baking parchment 
  • Put the piped mixture into the freezer for 20-30 minutes, meanwhile, pre-heat oven to 200 degrees
  • Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the sides start to go is golden brown
  • I sprinkled some cocoa powder and icing sugar on top for decorations
This is a very simple and easy to follow recipe. Adults love them, children love them and it's just a nice little treat when you have a couple of hours to spare in the afternoon/evening.
