Shortbread

Ingredients:
2 cups butter - cream until white
1 cup sugar - add slowly until fluffy
4 cups flour (1/2 cup should be rice flour)
1 tsp. almond flavoring

Directions:
Mix well, dough should be soft, but not sticky. Divide into 6-8 balls. Press into circles about 1/2 inch thick on cookie sheets. Score into eight sections, press a fork around the edge and prick each section 2-3 times. Bake 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes. Watch carefully. If it is golden brown it is too done. Sprinkle with sugar and cut into pieces along score lines. Press a whole almond into each section if desired.
