Instructions
Heat oven to 325 degrees. Using your food processor or stand mixer, pulse or mix together flour, sugar, rosemary and salt. Add butter, and lemon zest and pulse until the dough resembles bread crumbs. Pulse a few more times until the dough start to come together, but don't over process. Dough will not be smooth and may seem dry.
Press dough into an ungreased 8- or 9-inch-square baking pan. Prick dough all over with a fork. Bake until golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes for 9-inch pan, 45 to 50 minutes for 8-inch. Allow to cool slightly. Cut into squares, while still warm.
