3/4 lb Butter
1/4 lb Sugar
1/2 lb Flour
1/4 lb Cornstarch
Knead sugar & butter with hands until well mixed; then knead in cornstarch
& lastly the flour. The more time spent kneading the better the final
product. Break off small pieces; press into flat circles; decorate with
back of fork. Start baking in preheated 375 degree oven. Immediately reduce
temperature to 300 & bake for 1 hour. True Scotch short bread improves with
age.
