1CupVery cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
4TbsIce cold water (more as needed)
Instructions
In a food processor put 1 1/2 cups of the flour along with the salt and sugar. Pulse 2-3 times until well mixed. Sprinkle the butter cubes over the top and process until a dough forms, about 20-30 seconds.Even out the dough in the food processor and add the remaining 1 cup of flour. Pulse 4-6 times until the flour is evenly distributed (dough should be slightly crumbly at this point)Transfer to a medium-sized bowl and sprinkle the 4 Tbs of water on top. Using a rubber spatula, press the dough together until it starts to come together. You should be able to pinch it and not have it crumble. If the dough is still crumbling add more ice cold water, 1-2 Tbs at a time until the dough forms. Once the dough is formed, remove from the bowl and place on a clean surface. Work the dough only enough to form a ball. Cut the ball in half and wrap each half in plastic wrap. Place the dough in the fridge for at least 1 hour, and up to 2 days. You may also freeze this dough for up to three months in a Ziploc bag. Just thaw overnight in the fridge before use.
