Melting Moments Biscuits



Rachel Allen is one of my favorite celebrity chefs known for her work on Television and as a writer.This recipe of her's i just love baking over and over again.Melting moments was a compelling try as an amateur baker.


Melting moments really do live up to their name: they melt in the mouth. The reason for their extra special crumbliness is the addition of cornflour.Here is how i went about Baking them:

Ingredients:
175g self raising flour
125g corn flour
50g icing sugar
225g butter, cut into pieces
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method:

1.Preheat the oven to 160C.
2.Put all the ingredients into the food processor and blitz until just combined and forming a dough.
3.Make 40 small balls the size of a large marble and place onto baking trays.Line the trays. Flatten down each ball with a fork – only a little bit though.
4.Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes until still very pale in colour but slightly firm.


5.Remove the biscuits from the tray carefully because they’re really fragile, and cool.



Tip: Use Fresh and the Best Butter available in the market as the flavor of the Butter comes through in these Melting Biscuits.
