2 1/4 c. flour
1/4 tsp. baking powder
1 c. soft butter
1/2 c. plus 1 tbsp. sugar

Sift flour, measure resifted flour twice with baking powder. Cream butter until shiny. Add sugar gradually creaming well. Stir in flour in 2 or 3 potions, mixing until smooth. After each portion, knead a few times to blend well. Place between plastic wrap, flatten out until 1/4 inch thick, keeping shape as rectangular as possible.

Refrigerate until firm (approximately 20 minutes). Remove plastic wrap. Prick with fork and cut into 2 inch squares. Bake approximately 1/2 hour in 350 degree oven. Remove from pan at once onto rack to cool. Do not roll. Yield: Approximately 3 dozen. A Scottish Favorite!
