Melting Moment cookies are easy to make and very quick to make and start by simply melting the butter in a pan.
They are a soft, buttery, and melt in your mouth cookie.
I like to keep things very simple with the jam thumbprint, but they can be dressed up and sandwiched with buttercream or drizzled with chocolate ganache.

Chocolate Shortbread
This is one of my very favourite cookies. It's made just like shortbread with a longer slower cook in a single pan you cut into bars so has that firmer bite, but it also has a good helping of chopped chocolate to satisfy the chocolate lover. Delicious!Makes 24...
