2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 lb (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter

1. Place flour, salt and sugar in a food processor and process a few seconds to combine. Add butter; process until mixture resembles coarse meal, about 10 seconds.
2. Add ice water in a slow steady stream through the feed tube with machine running, just until the dough holds together. Do not process for more than 30 seconds.
3. Turn dough out onto a piece of plastic wrap and flatten into a circle. Wrap and chill for at least one hour.
