Exactly the reason I am in the kitchen instead of getting the garden ready for spring planting. It's cold here in San Jose. After my time in Puna, roughly August through January, I have been freezing and can't get warm enough to work outside! This should end soon, but I've never been so cold. I've lived in this house for 30 years! So another recipe treat:
A very simple shortbread cookie. Not very healthy, but tasty after dinner or with tea.
3/4 cup softened butter
1 cup flour less 2 tbls
2 tbls rice flour
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup cornstarch
Combine well with hands, roll on waxed paper to 1/4", cut into 1"x 2" cookies
Place on ungreased baking sheet (use teflon if available)
Bake 25 min @ 300 degrees
