PATE SUCREE EXTRA

Steps:

• Combine flour, sugar, and salt in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse to combine. Add butter, and process just until mixture resembles a coarse meal, about 10 seconds.
• With machine running, add 1/4 cup ice water in a slow, steady stream through feed tube. Drizzle in egg yolks, and process just until dough holds together without being wet or sticky, about 30 seconds. Test dough by squeezing a small amount together. If it is crumbly, add a bit more ice water.
• Divide dough in half. Pat into discs, and wrap in plastic. Chill for at least 1 hour.

PATE SUCREE EXTRA FOR LINZER HEART COOKIES

Steps:

• Put the flour and sugar in the bowl of a food processor. All ingredients should be cold. Add the pieces of butter and pulse approximately 10 times, or just until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
• Combine ice water and egg yolks in a measuring cup and add, drop by drop, through the feed tube with the food processor running, just until the dough holds together without being wet or sticky; do not process more than 30 seconds. Test the dough at this point by squeezing a small amount together. If it is crumbly, add a bit more water, a teaspoon at a time.
• Divide dough into thirds onto three large pieces of plastic wrap. Grasping the ends of the plastic wrap with your hands, press the dough into a flat circle with your fists. (You will have three dough rounds.) Wrap each dough in plastic and chill for at least an hour.
