Ingredients

Directions

Step #1 Beat butter, cheese & salt together in a mixer until completely smooth & mixed.
Step #2 Work in flour to a smooth dough.
Step #3 (You can use a mixer for this step, too, but results are superior if you work in the flour with your fingertips, a fork or rubber spatula).
Step #4 Flatten dough in foil to form a an 8 X 6 inch rectangle.
Step #5 Chill overnight.
Step #6 (You can chill it several days before using).
Step #7 remove this from refrigerator 8 to 10 mins before rolling.
Step #8 (Many recipes suggest a 30 min wait before rolling dough, but it's easier to handle when rolled as cold as possible).
Step #9 Divide dough for ease in rolling & to insure cold dough.
Step #10 Keep unrolled portion in refrigerator until ready to use.
Step #11 Roll on floured pastry cloth with floured rolling pin or between two sheets of waxed paper.
Step #12 The former is easier, in my opinion, & I find absolutely no sticking when I use a pastry cloth & covered pin.
Step #13 I first rub cloth & pin well with flour, then shake out excess.
Step #14 When using waxed paper, loosen it on both sides of pastry several times as you roll.
Step #15 Shape as directed in specific recipes & chill before baking.
Step #16 Brush tops (only) of all pastries with egg yolk beaten with cream.
Step #17 Bake in moderate oven (350 degrees) unless otherwise specified.
Step #18 --.
