  • 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • ⅓ cup confectioners' sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 8 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled and cubed

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, heavy cream, and vanilla extract. In a food processor, combine flour, confectioners' sugar, and salt. Add chilled butter and pulse until crumbly. Slowly add the egg mixture while processing until dough forms.
  2. Shape the dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least one hour.
  3. Roll out the chilled dough into an 11-inch circle on a floured surface and transfer it to a tart pan. Trim excess dough.
  4. Freeze the lined tart pan for about 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 375ºF (190ºC). Line with foil and fill with pie weights; bake for about 30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove weights and foil; cool completely.
