Ingredients:

  • 2 cup flour
  • 6 tsp sugar
  • 3/4 cup butter

Directions:

  1. Process or rub together first three ingredients,
  2. Then add egg yolks
  3. And process until the dough holds together in a ball.
  4. If necessary, add a few drops of milk.
  5. Press the dough evenly over the bottom and sides of an 11- to 12-inch fluted tart pan, or into several tart shells. It's easier to press it in if you cover it with a sheet of plastic wrap and press on top-avoid those doughy fingers.
  6. Bake at 325degrees for ten minutes; color will still be very pale.
  7. The shell is now ready to be filled and baked with the filling.
