Directions:
Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Mix confectioners and granulated sugar in a small bowl. Mix the flours together in a separate bowl. In a large bowl, thoroughly cream butter and sugar mixture. Gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture and mix with your hands until dough is smooth. Do not overwork. Pat the dough into a shortbread mold, working it to the edge and making sure, by the use of hand pressure, that it is also worked into the design of the mold. Bake for 45 minutes until shortbread is slightly browned and still slightly springy to the touch. Let cool on a wire rack for about 15 minutes, then gently run a knife along the perimeter of the mold to loosen. Invert mold on rack and lift shortbread out. Cut into 8 pie shaped pieces.
