My nana makes the best shortbread. This is her recipe. Need to add that you have to use Anchor Butter. No other butter gives this shortbread the buttery taste it needs.

Cream together butter and icing sugar. Add flour and cornflour to make a dough. Do not over need. Chill for at least half hour. Roll out and cut into circles using pastry cutter. Bake Gas 4 for 20 - 25 minutes. Shortbread should be slightly golden in colour. Sprinkle sugar and leave to cool.
Chef's Tips
You can make the dough up and freeze it. Just defrost and bake as usual. Still comes out same as fresh.
