Yields: 1 11" tart crust
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup chilled butter, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375°.
- Place all ingredients in a food processor and process until a ball starts to form.
- To make by hand: thoroughly cut chilled butter into flour, rechill if needed; add remaining ingredients and mix well.
- On a floured surface, roll dough out to a 12" circle, 1/8" thick; fold dough over the rolling pin, lift and place the dough in the tart pan.
- Using your fingers, push the dough into the corners; run the rolling pin over the top of the pan to cut off the excess dough; prick the bottom and sides with a fork and bake 8-10 minutes.
