and I actually tried it and it works! it better than works! it amazingly works! and I can't imagine how I rolled anything out before it...... oh yea I didn't.
Oh and of coarse I found it on my new love Pinterest!!
I suppose you think rolling out pie dough is hard. Please. I'm going to let you in on the biggest tip for rolling out pie dough. In fact, it makes it so easy I don't know why every single recipe for making a pie doesn't mention it: place the dough between two sheets of plastic wrap sprinkled with flour. If you've never tried it, you will be amazed. The dough doesn't stick to the counter or the rolling pin and it makes it so easy to roll out.
Oh and she makes her Pie dough in the food processes how clever is that!

Makes dough for one single crust pie. The recipe is easily doubled for a two crust pie. I use regular butter here instead of unsalted, so I don't need to add any salt. If all you have is unsalted butter on hand, be sure to add 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
- 1-3/4 cup flour (about 9 ounces)
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1-1/2 sticks butter (12 tablespoons), cut into slices
- 1/4 cup ice water (approximately)
Place flour and sugar in a food processor. Pulse. Add about half of the butter. Pulse. Add the rest of the butter. Pulse until the mixture turns into coarse crumbs. Through the feed tube, slowly add the ice water and pulse until the dough gathers up into a ball. If it doesn't after a few seconds, add a few more drops of ice water until it does. Take the dough and flatten it into a disc and place it on a sheet of floured plastic wrap. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
