    Crust: Sweet Pie Pastry


    Source of Recipe


    M. Goldman

    List of Ingredients





    2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
    1 cup unsalted butter
    1/2 cup very cold whipping cream
    3/4 teaspoon salt
    1 tablespoon sugar

    Recipe



    Place the flour in a large bowl. Cut or rub the butter into the flour until you have a somewhat even mixture of flour covered fat resembling a coarse meal.

    Make a well in the center and add most of the cream, the salt, and sugar. Stir with a fork or fingers to dissolve salt and sugar.

    Use hands when dough gets too hard to mix and combine to make a rough mass. If dough seems too dry, add remaining water. Knead very gently for a few seconds to smooth out dough.

    Pat the dough into a flattened disc and wrap well in plastic. Chill at least 1 hour or overnight before using.

    YIELD: One 9-inch Double Pie Crust
