- 1 stick frozen butter
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon sugar
Chop the frozen butter into small 1/2" squares or so and add to the food processor Pulse 6-8 times until butter is pea sized Add 1tbsp ice water and pulse Stop when the mixture stays together when pinched between two fingers
- Note 5 tbsp is too much and causes the dough to clump and stick in the food processor
Knead the mixture into a disc (this is more forming the disc than kneading) Put the disc in a sandwich bag in the fridge for 1 hour to 2 days. The recipe says to let the disc thaw at room temp for 5-10 min but I let it go 30 before rolling
Notes: I don't know how good this crust is compared to others
