Steps:
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and confectioners' sugar.
- In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of your stand mixer cream the butter until smooth and lighter in color. Add the dry ingredients and mix until all of the dry ingredients are incorporated. Cover and chill for 1 hour.
- Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and shape the dough into 1-inch balls. Place them onto a parchment paper or silicone mat lined baking sheet with about 2 inches of spacing between the cookies.
- Press down firmly to flatten the cookies using a dampened fork. Bake in the middle of your oven's center rack for 18-20 minutes or until the cookie bottoms just begin to turn a light golden color.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack to cool completely. Dust with confectioners' sugar once cooled (or the sugar will melt) if desired.

Tips:
- Proper Butter Temperature: Ensure your butter is at room temperature for easier creaming and a smooth batter.
- Creaming Butter and Sugar: Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This incorporates air, resulting in delicate cookies.
- Measuring Flour: Use a kitchen scale to measure flour accurately. Scooping flour can lead to too much flour being packed into the measuring cup, resulting in dry cookies.
- Chilling the Dough: Chilling the dough helps prevent spreading and keeps the cookies from losing their shape during baking.
- Baking Temperature: Bake the cookies at a moderate temperature (325°F or 160°C) to ensure even baking and prevent over-browning.
- Cooling Cookies on Wire Rack: After baking, transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. This allows air to circulate around the cookies, preventing them from becoming soggy.

Classic Melting Moments, with their melt-in-your-mouth texture and delicate flavor, are a delightful treat. By following these tips and carefully executing the recipe steps, you can create these charming cookies that are sure to impress your loved ones.
