This is great for that unexpected party that may come your way. It's my Granny's recipe, she came to America from Scotland in 1923.

Raefindel's Granny's shortbread

1lb (2cups) Butter, softened
1 cup (8 ounces) sugar
4 cups flour

Beat butter with electric mixer till fluffy. Add sugar and cream until fluffy. Mix in flour. Press into a 9 x13 inch pan (sorry I don't know the metric for that) Pierce surface with fork to prevent bubbling. Bake at 350 for about 45 minutes or until golden.

Note: DO NOT USE MARGERINE, and don't beat it by hand like Granny did, it makes it tough.
