scotch shortbread

This rich shortbread could also be called 'suicide shortbread' because of
its richness, but it is super easy to make.

Ingredients

       1/2 lb. (2 sticks) butter - softened
       1 1/2 cups sifted flour
       3/4 cup POWDERED sugar
       1/4 tsp. salt

Combine all ingreditnts and mix until a doughy consistency.  Press into a
shortbread mold (or pan).  My directions said to bake at 325 for about an
hour, but that time seemed much too long.  Watch the first time you make it
and bake until lightly browned.

Caveats:
1)  I haven't tried substituting margarine for butter, so results
       may be different.
2)  I have not baked this in a regular pan, so baking time may vary.
