Ingredients
  • 1½ cup of AP flour
  • ½ teaspoon sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup cold unsalted butter (1 stick), cut into small pieces
  • 2-3 tablespoons of ice cold water
Instructions
  1. In food processor fitted with a steel blade, add flour, sugar and salt.
  2. Pulse 2-3 times until all the ingredients are combined.
  3. Drop in the small pieces of butter so that they are evenly spread out in the food processor bowl.
  4. Pulse 7-8 times until the mixture looks like coarse meal.
  5. Add in 2 tbsp. of ice cold water and pulse another 7-8 times until dough is crumbly and holds together when pushed together with your hands (making sure the motor is off and being careful of the blade.)
  6. If the mixture is too dry and does not easily stick together, mix in another tablespoon of water and pulse 2-3 more times.
  7. With floured hands turn out dough onto a floured surface and work together to make one ball of dough.
  8. Flatten dough to a disk and cover in plastic wrap.
  9. Place in refrigerator until firm. (The dough can be refrigerated for up to 2 days)
  10. One dough is firm, roll out on a floured surface.
