Easy Pie Crust

Place flour, sugar and salt into the bowl of a food processor and pulse a few times to combine. Add cold diced butter and pulse the mixture until coarse crumbs form with some pea-sized pieces, then stop mixing. Mixture should remain dry and powdery. Add 6 Tbsps. ice water and pulse just until moist clumps or small balls form. Press a piece of dough between your fingertips and if the dough sticks together you have added enough water. If not, add more water a teaspoon at a time. Be careful not to add too much water or the dough will be sticky and difficult to roll out. Transfer dough to a clean work surface and gather dough together into a ball (it should not be smooth and dry). Do NOT knead the dough. Divide dough in half and flatten to form 2 disks. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for an hour before using in recipes that call for pie crust.
