Equipment

  • 1 pie pan
  • 1 Bowl

Ingredients

  • 1 1/3 c all purpose flour
  • 7 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1/3 c sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 4.5 oz butter cold, shaved is best
  • 5 tbsp water ice cold

Instructions

  • Place flour and cocoa in a bowl. Mix. Add sugar. Mix. Add cubes of cold cubed butter. Mix with a pastry cutter or back of a fork until you get a sand like crumb.
  • Add water a little at a time combining as you go. You may need less water than indicated to form a ball of dough. Put into a small bowl and cover with plastic wrap or wrap with parchment paper and fold over so it is not exposed to air. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
  • Remove from fridge and roll out on a very lightly floured surface so it is the same thickness all the way across. Place in a pie pan.
  • You can add the filling to the uncooked crust and bake according to your recipe instructions. Or this is How to Blind Bake first and then add a cold filling once it's cooled.
