This is already the 5th week of school and the kids are adapting well, no one cried :-)
To keep my story short, here's just a quick update of what I've baked, German Cookies! This is a very popular cookie in the cyberworld. If you've been following me, you'll know I'm not a cookie person. But since I've got a pack of near expiry potato starch, I didn't want to waste my ingredients so I made these.
Verdict: As per the title of this cookie, it truly melts in your mouth. I made a few other versions but didn't have time to upload the pictures yet.

(makes ~ 60 pieces)
125g butter
40g icing sugar, sifted (I used 30g)
125g potato starch
80g superfine flour (I use plain flour, tried out both 50g and 80g, both good)
Method
- Beat butter and icing sugar till fluffy and lighter in colour.
- Sift in potato starch and flour, mix to form a soft dough.
- Roll into small balls (about 2cm in diameter), arrange on lined baking pan and press lightly with a fork (dip the fork in water after each press to prevent cookie dough from sticking to the fork).
- Bake in preheated oven at 170 deg C for 15 mins, upper rack (need not bake till cookies turn brown).
Thanks for sharing. Gong Zi Fa Cai to you and family. :-)
