Ingredients
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup sugar
1 pinch of salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/4 cup ice water
3 large egg yolks, lightly beaten
Preparation
Combine flour, sugar, and salt in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse to combine. Add butter, and process just until mixture resembles a coarse meal, about 10 seconds.
With machine running, add 1/4 cup ice water in a slow, steady stream through feed tube. Drizzle in egg yolks, and process just until dough holds together without being wet or sticky, about 30 seconds. Test dough by squeezing a small amount together. If it is crumbly, add a bit more ice water.
Divide dough in half. Pat into discs, and wrap in plastic. Chill for at least 1 hour.
