I have many shortcuts to making pie crusts. I use this crust more then any other for pre baked crusts.
Spreadable Pastry Crust
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/4 cup powdered sugar
Beat all ingredients with electric mixer on low speed 1 minute, scraping bowl constantly. Beat on medium speed about 2 minutes or until creamy. Spread on bottom of ungreased pan. For blind baking crust: Bake 350 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely. Can double for larger pan.
