EMPANADA DOUGH
Stuff these with your favorite ingredients! Use only butter for this recipe. This dough should make about 10-12 empanadas depending on the size you are making them. This dough can also be made using a food processor and completely frozen butter pieces, though you will have to be careful not to overprocess the dough when mixing on the processor.

Steps:

- Blend in the cold butter cubes using you fingers or a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse meal (the mixture should be pea-size).
- In a small bowl whisk together egg, ice water and vinegar.
- Add to the flour mixture, stirring with a fork just until incorporated (the mixture will look somewhat lumpy).
- Transfer the mixture onto a LIGHTLY floured surface.
- Gather the dough together with your hands and gently knead with the heel of your hand once or twice (just enough to bring the dough together, do not overwork the dough or it will be tough!).

- Cover the dough tightly with plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour or up to 8 hours.
- Roll out the dough, then cut into desired size circles.
- Fill with favorite fillings then close the dough over the filling as you would a pierogi.
