Double pie crust

Here follows the recipe for the double pie crust as I some of you promised!!

you need:

2 cups flour
1 ts salt
¼ cup margarine cold
5 to6 Tbs cold water

First mix flour and salt together, with a pastry blender or 2 knives cut in the margarine until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the cold water 1spoon at the time,mixing lightly with a fork until the dough is just moist enough to hold together. Shape in 2 balls.

One ball you roll out to fit the pie plate, I always use 2 sheets of wax paper, making it easy to transfer in the pie plate, but you can do it on a floured surface and floured rolling pin.
You use the other ball as the recipe ask for!!
(Half a cup of margarine is 113 gram,a cup is 235cc)
Enjoy!
