Note: Mom makes this every year for Christmas. It's truly melt-in-your-mouth short bread. Can't emphasize enough not to let it get too brown.
1 pound butter
1 C sugar
Cream together well.
Add 1 T cornstarch (sort of heaping) sifted with 2-1/2 to 3 C flour. Use enough flour so dough won't stick to your fingers.
Pat into ungreased jelly roll pan.
Bake 350 degrees until lightly brown.
