Scottish Shortbread - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup icing sugar
2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Mix all ingredients together until just blended.
Line a 9\" X 9\" baking pan with foil. Spray lightly with non-stick spray.
Press dough into pan.
Poke with a fork or drag fork across the top to make a pattern.
Bake for 35-40 minutes. Remove BEFORE cookie gets browned. It will continue to cook a bit after removal.
Carefully remove from the pan by lifting the foil right out of the pan.
On a flat surface, cut the cookie into small bites sized pieces while it is still hot. If you wait too long, the cookie will only crumble.
