Flaky Sweet Pastry (Pate Sucree)

Recipe Ingredients

1 1/4 cups	78g / 2.8oz	All-purpose flour
7 tablespoons	105ml	Unsalted butter - chilled, cut in bits
2 teaspoons	10ml	Sugar
1/8 teaspoon	0.6ml	Salt
3 tablespoons	45ml	Ice water

Recipe Instructions

Place 1 cup of the flour, the butter, sugar and salt, into a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Process 10 seconds, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the ice water and pulse 10 to 15 times, just until the mixture begins to come together (do not let it form a ball). Empty the dough out of the machine onto a floured work surface and gather together by pressing lightly. If the dough seems too sticky, gently incorporate more flour. Shape into a ball, then flatten into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before proceeding with recipe.

This recipe yields enough dough for one 10- to 12-inch tart or four individual tartlets.
