Title: Swedish Melting Moments
Categories: Cookies
Yield: 1 servings

1 c Butter
1/4 c Plus 1 1/2 tablespoons
Sifted powdered sugar
1 1/4 c All-purpose flour
1/2 c Cornstarch
1/4 ts Almond extract
1/4 ts Orange extract

Cream butter in large bowl; gradually add sugar, beating untill light.
Sift in flour and cornstarch; mix well. Add flavorings, blending well.
Chill 1 hour. Shape dough into 1 inch balls, and place 3 inches apart on
greased cookie sheet. Flatten with the bottom of a glass dipped in water.
Bake at 350 for 10 minutes. Cookies do not brown. Yield 2 dozen.
This is the recipe as written, I have a note that they do not spread on
the pan, so I would put them closer together. On most recipes I tend to
skip over the sifting, but not this one.

The book includes a glaze: (which I do skip) 1 cup sifted powdered
sugar, 1 tablespoon butter, melted, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 tablespoon
orange juice. Combine all & beat with wire wisk till smooth. I made these
for people at work & they were all surprised as they took a bite & they
cookie disappeared! Terry Horger
