- Add sugar and continue beating until sugar is completely combined, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Combine flour and cornstarch in a separate large bowl. Add to butter mixture and mix with an electric mixer on low speed until just combined.
- Place balls of dough by heaping tablespoon (15 mL) on prepared baking sheets 5 cm (2 in.) apart. Press down with a fork.

Chef’s secret
To melt chocolate, microwave in intervals of 30 seconds, stirring between each interval, or place in a heat proof bowl over boiling water stirring constantly over low heat until melted.
