2 c. butter, softened
4 c. flour
1 c. powdered sugar
1/2 c. cornstarch

Mix all ingredients well, using a pie blender. Then use your hands and knead well. Roll out to about 1/2 inch thickness on a floured board. Cut with a cookie cutter. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet; prick each with a fork. Bake at 300 degrees for 10 minutes or until they turn a very delicate brown.

Makes about 5 dozen cookies.
