Ingredients:
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
- 1/4 cup cold vegetable shortening
- 1/4 cup cold strong brewed coffee
- 2 tablespoons cold water, as needed
Directions:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt.
- Add the butter and shortening and use your fingers to break it up into smaller pieces, until it is incorporated into the flour mixture and resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add the coffee and mix until just combined.
- If the mixture is too dry, add the cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it is the desired consistency.
- Gather the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and flatten it into a disc.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before using.
- Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface and transfer it to a greased 9-inch pie plate.
