- Cream butter and sugar together until smooth and fluffy.
- Combine dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, and cornstarch, then gradually add to the creamed mixture, one cup at a time, mixing until well incorporated.
- Prick all over the surface of the dough with a fork to prevent puffing during baking.
- Place the dough in a preheated oven set to 375°F, then immediately reduce the temperature to 300°F.
- Bake for 1 hour or until the shortbread is a pale golden brown.
- While hot, cut the shortbread into fingers or desired shapes.
- Allow to cool completely in the pan before removing and serving.
