RE: Marie Callender's Pie Crust Post By ChatySue (Guest Post) (06/12/2006) This is Marie Callender's Pie Crust Recipe: 1/2 cup butter 1/2 cup shortening 1 1/2 cups flour 1 teaspoon sugar 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 egg yolk 2 teaspoons ice water 1/2 teaspoon vinegar
Beat together the butter and shortening until smooth and creamy and chill until firm. Sift together the flour, sugar, and salt in a medium bowl. Using a fork, cut the butter and shortening into the dry ingredients, until the mixture has a consistent texture. Mix egg yolk, ice water, and vinegar into the dough, then form it into a ball and refrigerate it for 1 hour so that it will be easier to work with.
