Shortbread

I found this online and really liked it. They're much better than Girl Scout shortbread, but I think that's due to all the butter.

2 c. all-purpose flour
1/4 t. baking powder
1/4 t. salt
1/2 c. powdered sugar
1 c. butter, softened
1 t. vanilla
2 T. white sugar

Preheat oven to 350ยบ. In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, and powdered sugar. Stir in the butter and vanilla until a stiff dough forms. Pat dough into 9” round pans and prick well with a fork. Sprinkle remaining sugar over dough. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes until golden. Cut into wedges while warm. Serves 8.
