Pulse food processor until the butter is about peas sized, and evenly incorporated into flour (it happens pretty quickly). 3. While the food processor is running slowly drizzle in the ice water, until the dough starts to come together. 4. Turn the dough out onto floured surface and form it into a ball. Cover it with plastic wrap and put it into the refrigerator to chill. Chill for at least 1 hour, full disclosure I sometimes skip this step and it still turns out good, just not as flaky. *This recipe makes two pie crusts.
