List of Ingredients




1-1/4 C sifted Flour
1/4 t Salt
2 T Sugar
1/2 C Butter, softened
1 Egg yolk
1 T Lemon Juice

Recipe



Spoon flour and salt into a large bowl.  Push to sides of bowl, leaving a space in center.  Drop sugar, butter, egg yolk and lemon juice into center space.  Cream center ingredients, gradually working in the flour.  Gather dough into a ball, then knead a few times on a flat surface.  Wrap in waxed paper and chill until ready to
use (at least 1 hour).

On a lightly floured surface, roll dough out until slightly larger than pie plate.  Fit loosely into the plate, then turn edge under all around; flute.  Place shell in freezer or refrigerator to chill while preparing filling. 
(This pie shell may be prepared ahead and frozen.)

Makes one 8- or 9-inch pie shell.
