Polly's http://zmonline.com/shows/breakfast/highlights/bestest-ever-shortbread

Ingredients:
225g Butter
125g Icing sugar
125g Flour
125g Cornflour
125g Custard powder


Method:
- Pre heat oven to 150c and line two baking trays with baking paper or butter them lightly.
- Combine the butter and sifted dry ingredients in a mixer or food processor and mix until well blended.
- Tip the dough out onto the bench and knead into a firm mass.
- Shape the dough into a roll to refrigerate it for 30 mins & then slice it OR you can roll it out on a floured bench ready to cut funky shapes out.
- Cook shortbread slowly for 30 mins, tops should not change colour but bottoms will change to a pale golden brown.
- Rotate & swap the trays halfway through the cooking process.
- Remove to place on cooling racks and store once cold.
- You can freeze these and thaw as needed ... or just eat them all!!
