Bibi’s Shortbread

250g Butter

100g Caster Sugar

225g Plain Flour

100g Cornflour

Method

  1. Preheat Oven to 150 C.  Lightly butter a baking tray.

  5. Unwrap the log, then slice into 3cm thick pieces.
  6. Bake in the oven for 45 minutes, or until golden brown all over.
  7. Remove from the oven and leave for 10 minutes. Transfer onto a wire rack, sprinkle with sugar and then allow to cool completely.
