Pie Crust

makes two
After years of trying all kinds of pie crust recipes. I found this one in the Silver Palette. It is the best I have ever made...the butter gives it flavor and the Crisco keeps it light and flaky.

2 1/2 cups of flour
1 teaspoon of salt
2 teaspoons of sugar
8 Tablespoons of cold butter
6 Tablespoons of cold shortening
7 Tablespoons of ice water
Mix flour and salt, cut in shortening and butter,
sprinkle with ice water, form into ball. Chill and roll
out. Handle as little as possible!
