Buckingham Palace Shortbread

Ingredients A
250g butter .56 lb..

(1 stick of butter = 1/4 pound
1 stick of butter = 1/2 cup
1 stick of butter = 8 tablespoons
1 stick of butter = 4 ounces
1 stick of butter = 113 grams)

1/3C sugar
Cream butter and sugar
Beat Ingredients A in a mixing bowl until light.
Ingredients B
2C plain flour
3/4C +1T corn starch
Mix the flours
Put both flours into a bowl and stir well with a spoon. If you like you can sieve it.
Chill the dough
Add flour mixture to the butter mixture and mix well. Spread the dough onto a lamington tin to a thickness of about 3/4 inches thick. My lamington was a little too big so I filled it to 3/4 length. Chill in the fridge for abut 30 minutes. Then bake at 180 C /356 F degrees for about 40 minutes.

Baked and cut
Once baked, sprinkle heavily with fine sugar. Wait till it�s warm, cut into desired sizes and leave in the tin to cool. Enjoy. It�s really good with tea or coffee.
