Melting Moments (Snowballs)



Melting Moments, another take on shortbread cookies.
To the trinity of flour, sugar and butter some corn starch is added and baked at 250 degrees F for 60 minutes. They were oh, so delicate! when out of the oven and needed to be handled gently. I let them rest overnight on the cooling rack and they firmed up just enough. A light dust of confectioner's sugar and they are snowballs (Mario Batali might say, first step, find the snow's legs).
Cookies for some friends who invited us for lunch!
