3/4 cup flour |
1/3 cup cornmeal (i use white) |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Cream together butter, parmesan and sugar at med. speed in bowl of electric mixer. Scrape down contents.
3. Mix together flour, cornmeal, salt and rosemary in a bowl. Add to the creamed mixture, a little at a time.
