Perrin says this is super-easy and fool-proof. As I am a fool with pie crusts, it’s right up my alley:
8 tbsp. unsalted butter, melted
1/4 c. sugar
1/8 tsp. salt
3/4 tsp. vanilla
1 c. flour
Mix butter, sugar, salt and vanilla in a medium bowl. Add flour to mix just until well blended. Press dough thinly and evenly into tart pan.
