I tried this as it's far easier than the 'official' way to make PP. Quick as a flash (in the food processor) and results were excellent! I used it for Eccles cakes, and it was very good indeed.

A fantastic pastry. It is so easy to make and use. It will save you a bunch of money, produce a high quality product, and (with a little planning ahead) be right at hand whenever you need it. I, for one, will never use store bought again! Thank you, Karen.

This is a wonderful recipe, and so easy to make! So glad to have found this one. I doubled the batch, and made cherry cream cheese loaves. I made them the night before I needed them, cause the next day I didn't have time (of course had one,so great!!), and reheated them the next day in the oven for family members to try, and they loved them!!!!Thanks Karen!!!!
