Melting Moments are delicate Australian tea-time sandwich cookies. Starch lightens the buttery dough, which is patterned with a fork, baked, and filled with lemon buttercream. Careful measuring helps achieve the right texture.
Beat the room-temperature butter with the powdered sugar until light and pale. Sift in the flour and starch, add the vanilla, and mix until a smooth dough forms.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Pinch off pieces of dough weighing about 15 grams each and roll them into balls. Press each lightly with a fork to make a pattern.
Bake in a preheated 160°C / 320°F oven for 16 minutes, until the edges are lightly colored.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack and cool completely.
Beat the softened butter with the powdered sugar and lemon zest until creamy.
Pair the cooled cookies and sandwich them together with the filling.
Chill the dough before shaping; cold dough is less likely to spread in the oven. Contains wheat (gluten) and milk.
Hamuru 30 dakika dinlendirdikten sonra hâlâ biraz yumuşak geldi, şekillendirirken elimde dağıldı ve fırına verene kadar iki kez daha buzdolabına koymak zorunda kaldım; dinlendirme süresini uzatmak mı gerekiyor yoksa oda sıcaklığı mı etkiliyor?
