											| What You Need: |  |  |  |  |  
	| 2 cups all-purpose flour
		½ cup sugar
		1 heaping tablespoon cornstarch
		½ pound butter, softened |  |  |  |  |  
								|  |  
								| 
									| How To Cook: |  |  |  |  |  | 1. Place all of the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl and blend well. If you have a heavy-duty electric mixer, cut in the butter with the machine. If not, do it by hand with a pastry blender. 
 
 |  | 2. Knead the dough by hand for just a moment and form it into a circle ¾ inch thick on a nonstick baking sheet, and flute the edges. 
 
 |  | 3. Prick the whole circle with a fork. Bake in a preheated 325°F oven for ½ hour, or until it just begins to turn a light golden brown. 
 
 |  | 4. Allow it to cool for a few minutes, and then remove it to a rack for the final cooling. When cool, the cookie can be cut, or simply break it up into pieces and serve it with tea. 
 
 |  | NOTE: |  | If you wish to form smaller cookies from this recipe, just remember to watch the baking time. Smaller cookies will cook more quickly. |  |  |  |
