-------- ------------ --------------------------------
    8       oz           Flour
    4       oz           Cornflour or Rice Flour
    4       oz           Butter
    4       oz           Icing Sugar
                         Caster Sugar for Dredging

   :       Set the oven to 350F/Gas 4. Grease a baking
   sheet. Cream the butter and icing sugar together in a
   bowl. Sift in the flours and work into a smooth dough;
   if the dough is too dry a little water can be added to
   moisten. Divide into two. Roll out on a floured
   surface and shape into two thin rounds. Place on the
   sheet and prick all over with a fork. Mark each round
   into 6 triangles. Bake for about 20-25 minutes until
   pale golden in colour. Sprinkle with the caster sugar
   while still warm. Cut into the triangles and cool on a
   wire rack.
