Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.

- In a small bowl, whisk together 1 cup all purpose flour, ¾ cup cornstarch, 1½ teaspoons baking powder and ½ teaspoon salt until there are no lumps.
- Mix dry ingredients into butter mixture until thoroughly combined.
- If the mixture feels soft, chill for at least a half hour. Otherwise, go ahead and proceed to baking.
