WORLD'S BEST SHORTBREAD

My mom's shortbread recipe, still the best shortbread I have ever tasted. Christmas wouldn't be the same in our household if this family favorite was missing.

2 c. flour
1 c. butter
1/2 c. icing sugar or brown sugar

Cream butter, add sugar gradually and cream together after each addition. Add flour slowly until stiff. Turn out on floured board. Gradually knead in flour. Chill - roll out and cut rolls into thin slices. Bake in medium oven only long enough for tops of cookies to turn slightly golden, but not brown.
