Ingredients

2 c flour

6 T sugar

3/4 c butter

2 egg yolks

Directions

Process or rub together first three ingredients,

then add egg yolks

and process until the dough holds together in a ball.

If necessary, add a few drops of milk.

Press the dough evenly over the bottom and sides of an 11- to 12-inch fluted tart pan, or into several tart shells. It's easier to press it in if you cover it with a sheet of plastic wrap and press on top--avoid those doughy fingers.

Bake at 325degrees for ten minutes; color will still be very pale.

The shell is now ready to be filled and baked with the filling.
