--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  1       c            Butter (no substitutions!)
    1/2   c            Powdered sugar
  2       c            Flour

 Cream together butter and sugar. Knead in flour. Place
 dough on cookie sheet and pat out a 3/4 inch thick
 rectangle or circle. Prick surface. Chill 1/2 hour.
 Bake 5 minutes at 375 degrees and 45 minutes at 300
 degrees, until golden but not brown. Cut into squares
 or wedges.

 [I've substituted whole wheat flour for half the white
 flour. It doesn't exactly make this a healthy treat,
 but it does add an interesting flavor and color.]
