Shortbread

1/2 cup cornstarch

1/2 cup icing sugar

1 cup of butter or margerine, softened

1 cup flour

Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.

Mix all the ingredients together by hand, very gently.

Make the dough into balls, using 1 Tablespoon of the dough.

Place them about 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet.

Be careful to avoid working the dough too much - and if it begins to get too soft, refrigerate for a little while.

Press the balls with a wet fork to flatten slightly.

Bake about 20 minutes - do not let the cookies turn brown.

Cool in pan before removing.
