English Melting Moments
These crisp, crunchy biscuits melt in the mouth - hence their name. A freshly baked batch will soon disappear.
Ingredients
- 4 oz butter
- 3 oz caster sugar
- 1 egg yolk
- few drops of vanilla flavouring
- 5 oz self-raising flour
- crushed cornflakes
Instructions
- Grease two baking sheets.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until pale and fluffy. Beat in the egg yolk.
- Add the vanilla flavouring, stir in the flour to give a smooth dough and divide into about 24 portions.
- Form each piece into a ball and roll in crushed cornflakes.
- Place the balls on the baking sheets and bake in the oven at 190°C (375°F) mark 5 for 15-20 minutes.
- Cool on the baking sheets for a few moments before lifting on to a wire rack
