This flaky dough is a sturdier pastry vessel, making it perfect for hand-help wonders. Fill it up with seasonal fruit for a tasty treat on the go.

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-in. cubes

  • 1/4 cup sour cream

  • 1 egg yolk

  • 2 tsp ice water

Instructions

  • WHIRL flour and salt in a food processor. Add butter and pulse until crumbs are pea-size. Stir sour cream, egg yolk and ice water in a bowl, then add to food processor.
