Tool

• Food processor

• Plastic wrap

Ingredients

• 3 cups all‑purpose flour, divided

• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar

• 1 teaspoon salt

• 1 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes

• 4 to 6 tablespoons ice water

Direction

1. Mix the Dry Ingredients

• Add 1½ cups (180g) flour, sugar, and salt to the food processor.

• Pulse a few times to combine.

2. Add the First Half of the Butter

• Add half of the cold butter cubes.

• Process until the mixture is very crumbly and begins to clump, about 30 seconds.

3. Add Remaining Butter + Flour

• Scatter in the remaining butter and remaining 1½ cups flour.

• Pulse twice to distribute without over‑mixing.

4. Add Ice Water Gradually

• Drizzle in 4 tablespoons (60mL) ice water.

• Pulse a few times.

• Add more water 1 tablespoon at a time, pulsing after each addition.

• Dough should hold together when squeezed — not wet, not dry.

5. Form the Dough

• Transfer mixture to the counter.

• Bring it together into a ball.

• Cut in half and press each half into a disc.

6. Chill or Freeze

• Wrap each disc tightly in plastic wrap.

• Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 3 days.

• For long storage, freeze for a few months and thaw overnight in the fridge before using.
