Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl stir together 2 cups flour and 1/2 cup powdered sugar; add butter. Beat with an electric mixer on low to medium speed just until mixture begins to cling together. Press evenly onto the bottom of an ungreased 13×9×2-inch baking pan or 13 ½ × 9 ½ × 3-inch disposable foil pan. Bake about 25 minutes or until lightly browned.
