Directions: |
Directions:In a mixer with a paddle attachment , cream the butter and sugar.
Add the egg and when it is fully incorporated add the 2 yolks and pause to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
With the mixer on low, add the flour slowly and mix only until incorporated.
Once you think it is ready squeeze a bit of the dough to make sure that it isn’t crumbly. If it is add a little bit of water and mix until smooth.
Refrigerate until chilled.
Blind Bake:
Place a large piece of foil on top of the rolled out tart.
Place dried beans or rice as a pie weight to keep the form of the tart in place.
Bake in a 350º oven for 15 minutes. Take the weights and foil out and then bake another 8-10 minutes making sure that there aren’t any bubbles forming in the crust. If there are with a toothpick gently pop them.
Let cool until ready to fill. |

Notes: I use this versatile dough in a pastry cream tart with fresh fruit. You also can mold into cookies and bake them. Serve the cookies with the orange curd or the pastry cream.
We used this dough a lot when I was in France for many tarts and other pastries.
