Assorted Melting Moments

A perennial favourite, these buttery little treats will bring back memories of taking licking the cream and the biscuits. It'a a very easy to make cookies which take about 30 minutes to prepare. For these Assorted Melting Moments, I used butter cream, coffee cream and chocolate cream.
