DAVID'S PIE CRUST

    2          cups all purpose flour
    1          teaspoon sugar
    1/4       teaspoon salt

Put into the bowl of your food processor with knife blade attachemnt.  Pulse the ingredients a few times to mix well.

    2 sticks minus one tablespoon of cold unsalted butter

Cut the butter into chunks and add it to the food processor. Pulse until mixture resembles coarse cornmeal.

    1/3       cup ice water

Add the water. Process until the dough forms a ball and stop immediately.  Remove the dough ball from the processor and divide into two equal parts.  Wrap each in plastic wrap and form into round discs 4 inches wide.  Refrigerate for one hour.  Take one disc out and roll out on a floured pastry cloth.  Fills a nine-inch pie plate.

This recipe makes two nine-inch pie crusts.  The unused crust will keep well in the freezer.
