Steps:
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and confectioners' sugar.
- In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of your stand mixer cream the butter until smooth and lighter in color. Add the dry ingredients and mix until all of the dry ingredients are incorporated. Cover and chill for 1 hour.
- Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and shape the dough into 1-inch balls. Place them onto a parchment paper or silicone mat lined baking sheet with about 2 inches of spacing between the cookies.
- Press down firmly to flatten the cookies using a dampened fork. Bake in the middle of your oven's center rack for 18-20 minutes or until the cookie bottoms just begin to turn a light golden color.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack to cool completely. Dust with confectioners' sugar once cooled (or the sugar will melt) if desired.

ORIGINAL BE-RO MELTING MOMENTS-AFTERNOON TEA BISCUITS OR COOKIES
These are great little "light as a feather" and meltingly crisp English style biscuits, or cookies. This recipe is the slightly adapted recipe from the Be-Ro Flour cookbook - they suggest lard, but I don't "do" lard! Melting Moments ALWAYS made an appearance on my grandmother and mum's afternoon tea table, and we also had them popped into our lunch boxes for school. The recipe is SO easy to rustle up and they stay crisp and fresh for up to 5 days in an airtight tin. You can roll them in coconut or oats, I prefer coconut - but I am sure they would be just as nice with oats, which is a suggested alternative. Children and "big children" love these, and they really are melting moments, great with a cuppa English tea!

A yummy cookie! It is easy and quick to make. Makes a great Colossal Cookie, if you use a small pizza pan and cover with jam.
