Time 10m

Yield 1 tart crust

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg yolk
1 1/4 cups bleached all purpose flour

Steps:

  • Combine the butter and sugar in a medium mixing bowl or the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with paddle and beat on medium speed for 5 minutes until the mixture is fluffy, soft and almost white in color.
  • Beat in the vanilla and the egg yolk and continue beating for another two minutes until the mixture is soft and resembles butter cream.
  • Place the flour in a strainer and sift it all at once over the butter mixture using a rubber spatula.
  • Fold the dough until no traces of flour remain.
  • Scrape the dough onto the center of a 12 inch square of plastic wrap and shape it into a rough disk.
  • Cover with another 12 inch piece of plastic and press the dough until it is about 1/4 inch thick.
  • Refrigerate.
