       Title: Phipps Famous Shortbread
  Categories: Cookies
       Yield: 48 servings
  
   2 1/2 c  Flour, all purpose                  1 lb Butter, soft
       1 c  Fruit sugar                         1 c  Sifted rice flour
     1/2 lb Belgian chocolate              
  
   Spread the all-purpose flour on a cookie sheet and place under a pre-heated
   broiler about 4-5 inches from the element.  Roast the flour, watching it
   all the time until it is medium brown.  Turn the flour with a spatula to
   brown the other side.  The entire procedure takes about three minutes and
   gives the flour a rich nutty flavour. Let the flour cool.
   Mix the soft butter with the fruit sugar and add the sifted rice flour.
   Fold in the roasted flour and blend well.  Chop the chocolate into chunks
   just a little smaller than a sugar cube. Mix them into the dough, taking
   care you don't soften the chocolate too much. Shape as desired. Bake at
   300F for 1 hour.  Cool, then store in an airtight container. Yield depends
   upon size and shape.
