Todays guest post blogger is Kayla who has created this delicious recipe for us all to indulge in. I’ve recently come across Kaylas blog and love the way she writes and has very creative ideas. Enjoy……
My name is Kayla and I run the blog kaylaloves.com. I’m a 23 year old mum from Tasmania, Australia. I have been blogging for just over a year. I love baking and creating delicious food for my husband and son. I’m very excited to bring you this recipe! It’s one of my favourites as my mum would make it for my siblings and I when we were little.
My mum was always baking when I was a kid and still bakes now for all her grandkids! My all time favourite thing that she would bake were melting moments! Since these are my favourite I thought they’d be perfect to share! These are extremely easy to make with just 5 ingredients in total!
Lemon Melting Moments
Ingredients
Biscuits:
- 200g of butter (softened)
- ½ cup of icing sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups of plain flour
Lemon Buttercream:
- 50g of butter (softened)
- 1 cup of icing sugar
- 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
Method
- Preheat your oven at 150℃
- Cream your butter with an electric mixer until pale
- Add in the icing sugar, vanilla and plain flour and mix until it looks like popcorn
- Combine to a dough with your hands
- Make 16 small balls with the dough
- Press a fork into the top of each of them to flatten them out
- Let them set in the fridge for about 5 minutes then put them in the oven and bake until the edges are a golden brown
While you wait for your biscuits to cool you can make your lemon buttercream.
- Cream your butter with an electric mixer until pale
- Add in the icing sugar and lemon juice and mix until smooth
Putting your biscuits together can be really fun! I like to put my buttercream into a piping bag and pipe the buttercream in using a star tip so it looks extra fancy, but you could always just use a knife and spread it on!
If you make these I hope you enjoy them as much as my family and I do and let me know what you think of them!

I love lemon deserts they help to rid the desert of too much sweetness (yes there is such a thing…for me anyway) and I absolutely LOVE buttercream so these look A-MAZE! Thanks for joining us at #familyfun
I’m the same! I don’t like things too sweet, so I love a bit of lemon!
