Ingredients
- 2cups flour, all purpose (plain)
- 1/2cup icing sugar
- 8ozs buttercold, cut into small pieces
- 1tbsp caster sugar
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to to 300 f (150 c).
- Measure flour and icing sugar into food processor and mix for a few seconds. Add the butter pieces.
- Process turning on and off until mixture forms fine crumbs, about 30 seconds. Then process continually until mixture clumps onto the blades. Stop the processor.
- Turn onto a 9″ (23cm) square baking tin. Gather into a ball and then press evenly into the corners of the tin. Smooth with a metal spatula. Pierce well with a fork and pre-cut into serving size pieces (this helps stops crumbling during the final cutting).
- Bake in the oven until firm and lightly browned, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle lightly with caster sugar.
- While still warm, cut into pieces. Allow to cool completely in the tin and then carefully remove the cut pieces. Store in an airtight jar.
