Category: Holiday, Eggs

 Ingredients List

  • 1 stick (115 gr) butter, at room temperature
  • 3/4 cup (93 gr) powdered sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 1 /2 cups (188gr) flour
  • 2 tablespoons (20 gr) cornstarch (makes for a lighter crumb)
  • pinch of salt

 Directions

1. In a mixer, cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.

2. Add the egg and mix until combined.

3. Add the flour, cornstarch and salt, and mix briefly to incorporate.

4. Place the mixture onto a lightly floured board and gather the dough into a smooth ball. Do not work the dough while in the mixer or it will toughen up. Flatten the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate for an hour.

5. When the dough is cold, roll it out on a lightly floured board or in between the sheets of plastic. You will have extra dough that you can save for another use in the fridge for up to 5 days [or frozen, well wrapped for up to 3 months.]

6. Cut out 8 rounds two inches larger than your pastry rings. Fit the dough inside the rings with your fingertips and trim the edges with a sharp knife. Line the rings with small squares of parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dry beans. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake at 350F for 10-12 minutes. Let cool.
