(350 F oven) This is the best of all shortbreads. My opinion.

Ingredients:

1/2 pound butter

3/4 cup icing sugar

3/4 cup cornstarch

1  1/2 cup all purpose flour

Mix the ingredients in the order given. Knead a little. You can form the dough into rolls. Chill and then slice in 1/4 inch slices. OR roll on a floured board and cut in fancy shapes. Bake on an ungreased pan (350 F) until a pale golden colour. (Gertrude Field)

recipe is easily doubled or tripled!
