SCOTCH SHORTBREAD

My best friend in high school's mom made this for me when I had my first overnight stay in a hospital. I loved it so much that I made it whenever I got the chance. When we lived overseas, my mom had to limit the number of times I could make it because butter was so expensive. Now it's part of my Christmas baking. Very rich and good!

This is an old Scottish recipe for simple wholesome bread that requires no proving. I serve it with hearty soup or with a stew that has lots of gravy.
