Time 45m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon white sugar
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ cup butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  • In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, brown sugar, white sugar and cinnamon. Cut in the butter until the mixture is like fine crumbs. Pack the crumbs into a ball, then knead by hand until smooth. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out into an 8 inch circle. Place the circle on a baking sheet, and slice into 16 wedges. Leave the circle intact.
  • Bake for 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the center has set. Cut the circle into wedges again while it is still warm, and transfer to a wire rack to cool.
