    Step 1
    Cream butter and sugar together.
  • Step 2
    Gradually stir in flour. Knead until smooth.
  • 8 x 11
    Step 3
    Pat into a 1/3 inch thick rectangle (8 inches x 11 inches). I do this on one of my large cutting boards.
  • Step 4
    Now cut dough into 1 inch x 2 inch strips. Place 1 inch apart on an ungreased baking sheet.
  • Step 5
    With a fork, prick the top of each cookie in 3 places to make a little design common in shortbread cookies.
  • Step 6
    Bake at 300 degrees for 25 minutes, or until the bottom of the cookie begins to brown.
  • Cooling on baking sheet
    Step 7
    Cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes, and then move to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Ready to go with a cup of coffee or tea!
