Melting Moments


Melting Moments are quick to whip up and require very few ingredients.  They are also customisable as you can change the filling flavour easily by substituting


INGREDIENTS

Cookies:

125g butter, softened

3/4C (115g) plain flour

1/4C (45g) soft icing mixture

1/3C (50g) custard powder

Filling:

60g butter, softened

2/3C (110g) icing sugar mixture

2t cocoa powder

1T hot water


METHOD

Preheat oven to 160C fan forced. Line an oven tray with baking paper or a baking mat.  Beat the butter until pale and creamy. Sift in the flour, icing sugar and custard powder powder and mix to combine

Use your hands to roll the dough mixture into balls. Space the balls apart on the tray as they will expand

Use a fork to gently flatten each ball


Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes.  Remove from oven and set aside overnight to cool or for at least 30 minutes

Use a whisk to beat the filling butter and icing sugar in a bowl until light and fluffy. Add the cocoa powder to the hot water and mix.  Whisk into the butter mixture.  If too soft refrigerate for about 10 minutes to set the butter


Spread the butter mixture over the flat side of half the biscuits and sandwich together with remaining biscuits
