Yield Makes two 8- to 10-inch tarts or single-crust pies

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
4 tablespoons ice water
2 egg yolks, lightly beaten

Steps:

  • In the bowl of a food processor, add flour, sugar, and salt. Add butter and process for approximately 10 seconds, or just until the mixture resembles a coarse meal. To mix by hand, combine the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Using a pastry blender or two table knives, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal.
  • With the machine running, add ice water, drop by drop and slowly add egg yolks, until the dough just holds together without being wet or sticky; about 30 seconds. Test the dough at this point by squeezing a small amount together. If it is too crumbly, add a bit more water.
  • Turn dough out onto a large piece of plastic wrap. Grasping the ends of the plastic wrap with your hands, press dough into a flat circle with your fists. Wrap dough in the plastic and chill for at least an hour.
