One of my favourite desserts is the melting moment biscuit (cookie). They just melt in your mouth and are absolutely delicious.
I found this recipe in the book Indulge: Gluten-Free Food Gets A Makeover by Rowie Dillon.
The secret to a melting moment is the icing sugar ingredient.
Recipe: Melting Moments
These taste so good you will not believe that they are gluten-free. You will absolutely melt with glee the moment you bite into one.
