How To make Traditional Scottish Shortbread
4 c Flour; all-purpose
1 1/2 c Cornstarch
1 c Granulated sugar
4 Sticks butter
Extra sugar to sprinkle on . top Sift the flour, cornflour and sugar into a mixing bowl. Cut the butter into the dry ingredients, then rub the butter in with your fingertips. Mix together well. You can also do this in a food processor, or in a tabletop food mixer. Press the shortbread mixture into the tin. Prick the shortbread at even intervals with a fork, and bake in a preheated low oven (150?C/300?F/gas 2) for about 1 hour, till the shortbread is a pale golden colour. Take the tin out of the oven and dust the shortbread liberally with sugar, shaking it evenly over the surface. The sugar will stick to the hot shortbread. Cut the shortbread into squares or rectangle shapes, and cool on a wire rack. Store in an airtight tin.

Making traditional Scottish shortbread
Rena Harrop has been practicing her recipe for 70 years. Want to try it yourself? Follow these steps:
Ingredients:
1 lb butter (Harrop says to use farm-fresh butter, not salted)
2 cups berry sugar
4 cups flour
2 tablespoons rice flour
Directions:
Mix the sugar and two flours together in a bowl. Then, start incorporating the dry mixture into the butter. Harrop says using her hands to do this achieves the desirable consistency. Once it’s mixed, put the dough on the counter and knead until it’s pliable.
Then, use a rolling pin to roll it flat and cut it into whatever shapes you want.
Bake the cookies in the oven at 300F for 30 to 40 minutes. Harrop says don’t wait until the cookies turn brown—remove them once the edges start to turn a cream colour.
Then, put them on a rack to cool and sprinkle more sugar on top.
