An easy pastry crust. I can't remember where I got this, but I use it whenever I make eggnog cups and tarts. I use my kitchen-aid mixer with a bread hook for step 3. Ingredients:
3 3/4 cups flour |
1 1/2 teaspoons salt |
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar |
1 1/2 cups butter, cut into small pieces |
1/2-3/4 cup ice water |
Directions:
1. Mix flour, salt, and sugar together.
2. Add butter and cut in with a pastry cutter or two knives.
3. Slowly add between 1/2 cup up to 3/4 cup water while mixing together, until the dough holds together.
4. Put dough on work surface and shape into a square.
5. Divide the dough in 1/2 and wrap each in plastic wrap.
6. Chill at least one hour before using.
