Default Shortbread - brings you all, my greetings for Merry Christmas!

Maida - 175 gms

Fine rice flour - 35 gms

Caster sugar - 70 gms

Butter - 140 gms

Extra powdered sugar to dredge

Line a baking tin with greased paper.

Sieve maida into a bowl, add rice flour & sugar & knead the butter into the dry ingredients, using the hand.

When the mixture binds together, pack it into the prepared tin & prick a design on the cake, using a fork.

Bake in a slow oven 325 deg F, for 1 – 1 ¼ hrs, until lightly browned & firm

Remove from oven & dredge with caster sugar.

When warm, mark into wedges & on cooling, cut.
