- 3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter, cut into bits
- 4 ounces cold cream cheese, cut into bits
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- In a food processor blend the butter, the cream cheese, the flour, and the salt, pulsing the motor, until the dough just begins to form a ball, gather the dough into a ball, and flatten slightly. Dust the dough with flour and chill it, wrapped in plastic wrap, for 1 hour. The dough may be made 1 day in advance and kept wrapped well and chilled.
