Instructions

1
Make the crust: Pulse the flour, sugar, and salt together in a food processor until combined. Add the cold butter cubes and pulse 8–10 times until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces of butter remaining. Drizzle in 2 tbsp ice water and pulse until the dough just begins to clump together; add the remaining 1 tbsp water only if the dough looks dry and crumbly.
2
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and press it into a flat disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, until firm.
