--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1       c            Butter (no substitutions!)
     1/2   c            Powdered sugar
   2       c            Flour

  Cream together butter and sugar. Knead in flour. Place
  dough on cookie sheet and pat out a 3/4 inch thick
  rectangle or circle. Prick surface. Chill 1/2 hour.
  Bake 5 minutes at 375 degrees and 45 minutes at 300
  degrees, until golden but not brown. Cut into squares
  or wedges.
  
  [I've substituted whole wheat flour for half the white
  flour. It doesn't exactly make this a healthy treat,
  but it does add an interesting flavor and color.]
