Melting Moments
Rating (0 Rated)
"My brother and I looked forward all year to the day my grandmother made the Melting Moments at Christmas. This cookie was - and still is - our favorite among all the wonderful cookie recipes her German mother had taught her. The cornstarch in the recipe is the secret behind how this purely light, yet rich cookie virtually melts in your mouth," -- Lisa Freed, office manager
