Ingredients
- 2 cups flour
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- grated rind of one lemon
Directions
- Sift flour and baking powder together in a small bowl.
- Cream butter, add sugar slowly, mixing well.
- Mix in egg and lemon rind.
- Add flour/baking powder mixture, mix in well.
- Shape into balls about the size of a golf ball, place on pan, flatten slightly with the bottom of a glass.
- Bake at 300° for 15 to 20 minutes, just until a bit golden on the edges.
- These last well if kept in a tightly covered container, and actually taste even better after a day or two as the flavors develop.

I remember my mom would make homemade short bread during berry season. After being out in the berry patch all day it was so nice to have this for dessert.
