• 8 oz. butter
• 12 oz. plain flour
• 4 oz. sugar

Cream butter and sugar very thoroughly. Sift flour and cornstarch. Gradually work into the creamed mixture with a fork and then with the hand. Knead in the last part of the flour on a board. Place the mixture right on the baking sheet and divide in half. Pat into 2 rounds and prick all over with a fork. Bake in slow oven at 300°F for about 40 minutes or until light golden color.
