Before You Start: I highly encourage you to weigh your flour and butter using a kitchen scale. For weights, click the Metric button above. If you don't have a scale, here's how to measure flour with a measuring cup: Fluff the flour with a spoon, sprinkle it into the measuring cup, and level it off. Otherwise, you may scoop more than you need.
