In a food processor add Flour, Sugar and Salt. Blend for 30 sec until just combined. Add in Butter and Shortening; pulse until you get a crumbly mixture. Add 4 tbsp. Ice Cold Water over this mixture and process until moist clumps form. Gather the Dough into a ball and flatten into a disk. Wrap in plastic and chill for about 1 hour. Roll out the dough on a floured work surface into desired circle. Transfer this circle into baking dish and trim the edges and crimp decoratively. Pierce the bottom of crust with a fork and freeze for 15 min before using it in your favorite recipe.
