Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 285°F.
2. Mix together the flour and semolina in a bowl.
3. Cut the butter into small pieces and add it to the sugar and rub together with your fingertips. Knead lightly to form a smooth dough.
4. Press the dough into two 7” greased pans and level (I use a potato masher). Prick all over with a fork and chill until firm.
5. Bake for about 45 minutes. Sprinkle with the vanilla powder and leave to cool in the pan, then cut into fingers.

Comments, or questions, for this recipe
I'm assuming the sugar goes in with the butter, semolina and flour?
