Directions:
- Cut the butter into 1/2 cubes.
- Place the flour, sugar and salt in your food processor.
- Pulse to combine.
- Add the butter and pulse until chunks the size of a pea remain.
- Slowly pour in the water, pulsing just until the dough begins to come together.
- It will look like a shaggy mess.
- Remove from the bowl and knead lightly one or two times, then pat out flat and cover with plastic wrap.
- Chill 2-3 hours before using.
- To use: Cut the dough in half, roll out one section at at time.
- After you have either fit it into a pie shell, or formed into squares for turnovers, make sure you chill the dough down hard AGAIN.
- This dough does much better when it goes into the oven ice-cold.
- It shrinks much less.
- Note: Do not overwork this dough or you will not get flaky results.
