Make the Pie Crust
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add cold water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Shape into a disk, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

Roll Out the Dough
