Mom's shortbread

Mom made the best cookies, and one of the all-time favorites was good old-fashioned Scottish shortbread.

Give this one a try. It's pretty easy.

1 cup butter
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup rice flour or cornstarch
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/4 tsp. baking soda

Form the dough into a brick shape and bake at 300 for 30 minutes, or until golden brown on top. When cool, slice gently with a nonserrated knife and enjoy with hot cup of thistle tea.
