Method

  1. In a food processer, cream the butter and sugar until smooth.

  3. Add the sifted flour and mix thoroughly, then add the eggs one at a time ensuring it is well mixed before adding the next egg
  4. Remove the combined dough from the processer, and gently knead to form a ball. The dough will be quite wet, so flour your bench. Wrap in cling film and place in refrigerator overnight
