  2. 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
  3. 1/2 teaspoon salt
  4. 2 sticks (1/2 pound) unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces and chilled
  5. 1 large egg yolk
  6. 6 tablespoons ice water
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°. Let the dough stand at room temperature for 10 minutes. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out each disk to a 12-inch round about 3/8 inch thick.
