Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------- --------------------------------
2 c Flour
1 c Margarine
1/2 c Powdered sugar
1999 :2 5 Pm

Mix together and knead like bread for a MINIMUM of 15-20 minutes. Chill for
1 hour. Roll out and cut into bars, poke fork holes into the cookie for
design, and bake in a 300F oven for 15-20 minutes. It has to be kneaded or
it doesn't turn out flaky. If these are done right, you can take a bite out
of them, and it will just dissolve in your mouth. I don't roll out the
dough into bars. I just pick off dough and roll into balls. I then use a
fork that has been dipped in icing (confectioner's) sugar to flatten them
slightly before baking. You want them cooked, but you don't want ANY color
to them at all. They are perfect if the bottoms are just starting to change
color a bit. From: Trish > Date: Monday, November
