Directions:
In a food processor, pulse the flour, sugar and salt together to combine. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal, with a few pea-size pieces of butter remaining, about 5 pulses. Sprinkle 3 tablespoons of the ice water over the mixture and pulse until the dough is crumbly but holds together when squeezed, about 5 to 10 pulses. If necessary, add up to 2 tablespoons additional ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time; do no over mix. Form the dough into a disk and wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour, or overnight.
Lightly flour a work surface and rolling pin and roll dough out into a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate, fold the overhanging dough underneath itself and crimp the edges. Place the dough-lined pie plate in the refrigerator while you prepare filling.
