Instructions

In a food processor combine 1 1/4 cups flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Add 1/2 cup cold cubed butter and pulse until coarse crumbs form.
Add 3 to 4 tablespoons ice water gradually while pulsing just until the dough comes together. Shape into a disk, wrap, and chill for 30 minutes.
