Servings: 10-16 (depending on what pan you use)

Comments: This is one of my most favorite desserts since third grade. My grandma bakes it all the time.

Ingredients: 1 cup (2 sticks/8 oz./226g) butter (I recommend Irish Butter) 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 cup granulated sugar 2 eggs 2 tablespoons milk Granish: (optional) Cinnamon or toasted almonds

Instructions: In a mixing bowl, with two knifes or a fork, cut the cold butter and flour and sugar together until it becomes crumbly. In a measuring cup, whisk together the egg and the milk. Pour about 3/4 of the egg mixture into the flour-butter mixture and mix with a fork until you get a crumbly or soft dough. Press dough into a greased 10-inch square baking pan or a 9-inch springform pan. Then add the remaining egg mixture and smear it out evenly on the dough. Draw diamonds on top with a knife and bake for 30-25 minutes in a 350 degree F/180 degree C preheated oven. Chill, and never serve this warm. Makes 10-16 servings, depending on which pan you use.
