Cream Cheese Pie Crust

User Rating 4 Star Rating (1 Review) Write a review

If you don't have a stockinette, use a nonstick rolling pin to roll out this pie crust dough.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Total Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 sticks butter (1 cup) softened
  • 8 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened
  • 2 cups flour

Preparation:

Beat the butter with the cream cheese until thoroughly mixed. Add flour and mix well until a dough forms. Form into ball, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight before using. Use the traditional flour and stockinette method for rolling out this dough.

This recipe makes enough pastry for a 2 crust 9" pie.

Quick, easy and foolproof!, Guest NY Baker

The title says it all: this recipe was very simple and worked well, what's not to like? I've made cream cheese crusts before with different recipes, and I think this one was the easiest and came out just as well as the others. Recommended.
