Step-by-Step Method
Prepare the oven and tray
Oven Heat to 160°C (top-bottom). Grease a rectangular tray or line it with baking paper.
Mix the butter and sugar
Mix room temperature butter with brown sugar for 1–2 minutes; A homogeneous, creamy appearance is sufficient.
Add the flour and gather the dough
Add the sifted flour piece by piece. The mixture will first become crumb-like; If it comes together when you press it with your hand, the consistency is ok.
Press into the tray
Put the dough on the tray. Flatten it to an equal thickness with a spatula or your palm, pressing firmly.
Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes. It comes off when the edges become slightly colored; Be careful not to fry too much.
Slice and cool
When you take it out of the oven, let it sit for 5 minutes, and while it's hot, score and slice it into 42 pieces. Cool completely on the tray, then serve.
