Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 450 and butter an 8 round cake pan.
  2. In a food processor, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut butter into about 8 pieces, add to flour mixture, and pulse until pea-sized clumps form.
  3. Beat egg and half-and-half together and add to flour mixture. Pulse just until combined. Mixture will be quite wet.
  4. With floured hands, gather into a ball and press into prepared pan, building up the edges a little bit. Sprinkle liberally with baker's sugar and bake in preheated oven for 15-18 min until lightly browned and just done in the center.
  5. Let cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing into wedges and removing from pan.
