Como fazer Cream Cheese Pie Crust
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
- Add flour, gradually, mixing until a crumbly dough forms.
- Stir in sugar and salt.
- Add cold butter, cutting it into the dough using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing lightly until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
- Form the dough into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 30 minutes.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to your desired thickness. (For a 9-inch pie, roll to about 1/8 inch thickness)
- Transfer the dough to a 9-inch pie plate. Trim and crimp the edges.
- Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork to prevent bubbling.
- Blind bake for 15 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. (Optional: Line the crust with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans to prevent shrinkage during baking.)
- Remove from oven and let cool completely before adding your favorite pie filling.
