| 1. In a large bowl, cream the sugar and butter together. | 2. Then add about 3 cups of the combined flour just so you can take the dough out the bowl to knead the rest of the flour in. | 3. Knead the flour in until the dough is of a smooth round ball. | 4. Almost the consistency of marzipan or almond paste. In the summer, when making this, you may need a little more flour. | 5. For two 8-inch cake pans: Cut the ball of dough in half. | 6. Flatten the dough into the pan, making a smooth surface. At this time, you can either use a fork and prick the dough all over or use what looks like a butter mold ( There are shortbread molds with thistle out there). | 7. Bake for one hour or until golden brown in an oven of 400 degrees. Enjoy | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
