Ingredients
2 ½cupsall purpose flour
1cupunsalted buttercold two cubes, or frozen
1tablespoongranulated sugar
1teaspoonsalt
8-12tablespoonsice water
Instructions
Mix flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.
2 ½ cups all purpose flour, 1 tablespoon granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon salt
Cube cold butter into small pieces using a sharp knife, or grate frozen butter using a cheese grater. Remove 2 tablespoons of butter and reserve then cube the remaining cold butter into small pieces. Cut in using fingertips or a food processor until only pea-sized pieces remain. Sprinkle with water, 3 tablespoons at a time, while tossing lightly just until dough comes together. Divide dough in half. Wrap in plastic and chill at least 30 minutes or up to 5 days.
1 cup unsalted butter, 8-12 tablespoons ice water
On a lightly floured work surface, roll out 1 disk of dough to an 12-inch round- turning the dough about a quarter turn after every few rolls to prevent it from sticking and keep it even.
Fill as desired, topping filling with reserved two tablespoons butter.
Bake at 425 degrees unless otherwise instructed in recipe.
