Best 4 Pasta Frolla Italian Sweet Pastry Dough Recipes

PASTA FROLLA RECIPE - ITALIAN SWEET PASTRY DOUGH

Steps:

• In the bowl of a standing mixer using the flat beater, cream together the butter and sugar on medium-low until combined.
• Mix together the egg, yolk, salt, zest, vanilla, and heavy cream in a bowl. Add all the liquid ingredients into the mixer and mix on low until you have a smooth batter. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and mix for a few seconds more.
• Scrape down the sides one more time and add the flour. Mix until just combined with a little flour still unmixed. Take the bowl off the mixer and use your spatula for the last few stirs. Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a disc. Wrap each disc in plastic wrap and let it rest at least 2 hours and up to 3 days in the refrigerator. (The dough can also frozen for up to 2 months, well wrapped.)
• When you are ready to use the dough, let it sit out until it is pliable and then roll it out or shape it according to your recipe. Pasta frolla can be used for tarts, cookies, and other baked sweets.
