She may call this basic, but I call it indispensable. I made her 'All American Apple Pie' with this crust, and it was perfect - flaky, crunchy, buttery and not hard to work with at all.

As with her other crusts, it's a little complicated - you freeze some of the butter in advance, then knead the whole amount in a plastic freezer bag when it's mixed. But the result tells the tale. This is now my default crust.
