Prepare the Tart Crust
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Add the chilled butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough holds together. Form into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Roll Out the Dough
After chilling, roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut into rounds and fit them into a greased muffin tin to form tart shells.
