Preheat oven to 350 degrees and lightly grease an 8x12 baking dish.
In a mixing bowl, cream butter and powdered sugar together until fluffy. Slowly add 1 cup flour and salt and continue to beat until dough begins to form ball.
Remove dough ball from mixing bowl. Using your hands press dough into the bottom of greased baking dish.
