For those seeking speed, the same process can be achieved using a food processor. Place the flour and grated butter in the machine, pulse briefly until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs, then add ice water while pulsing until the dough comes together. Handle it the same way — form into a disc, wrap, and refrigerate.
