Buttercrust Pastry Dough Recipe

Place blade insert into bowl of food processor. Add 1 cup flour. Sprinkle frozen butter cubes over flour. Add remaining 1 cup flour sugar and salt. Cover. Pulse in short bursts on and off until butter is broken into small pieces and looks crumbly about 1 minute. Drizzle in ice water. Pulse with longer pulses on and off until mixture turns pale yellow and looks like crumbs about 10 to 12 seconds. Scrape down sides with spatula. Pulse once or twice more.

Transfer mixture onto a work surface. Bring pieces together to form a tight round ball of dough. Flatten slightly and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight before rolling out.
