Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter (or shortening)
1/4 cup cold water

Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, combine the flour and salt.

2. Cut in the butter with a pastry cutter, or an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix until the dough has the consistency of small peas.

3. Sprinkle the water over the dough and mix it lightly to form a dough that holds shape when gently pushed together. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before using. (This can be made in advance or stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days or frozen for longer storage.)

4. Roll the dough out until it is 2 inches larger than the pie pan and fit the dough into the pan.
