MELT-IN-YOUR MOUTH SCOTTISH SHORTBREAD COOKIES 1 1/4 c. powdered sugar 4 c. flour (bleached flour works best) 2 tbsp. cornstarch 4 cubes butter (no substitutions, please) room temperature
Stir together powdered sugar, flour and cornstarch. Cut in butter until dough is consistency of play dough. Divide dough into 4 equal parts. Form into balls. With rolling pin on very lightly floured surface, shape each ball into a 1/4 inch thick round. Transfer to baking sheets (two cookies per sheet). Prick each cookie with a fork in a pretty design. Bake at 275 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes. When cooled, break apart into pie wedge sections. Note: 1 cube of butter equals 1/2 cup or 8 tablespoons butter (one stick). Enjoy. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Access the Recipes And More list archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/recipesandmore%40googlegroups.com/ Visit the group home page at: http://groups.google.com/group/RecipesAndMore -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
