Stop everything and make my grandmother's shortbread right now!!!!!

1 Β½ cups flour

Β½ tsp salt

Β½ cup corn starch

1 cup butter

Β½ cup sugar

Sift flour, salt, cornstarch together twice then work in sugar, then butter continually kneading and working until the dough is fine and smooth. Press in 9 inch square pan and bake at 350Β° for half to ΒΎ hours.

@Kurtroedeger on a scale of ezpz to killmenow, how much work is kneading until fine/smooth?

@evistre pretty close to ezpz. I only ever just mix with a fork. I don't even sift. It's pretty forgiving. Just needs to be mixed evenly.

@Kurtroedeger mmmm, perfect level of difficulty for meeee. i love shortbread :)

growing up i found a recipe for boterkoek and i fixed that all the time. tons of butter lol

@evistre

Butter is one of the major food groups.
