Method

With a mixer, beat the butter fluffy cream and add the sugar. Add in the process of stirring and slightly beaten egg. Add a pinch of salt into the flour and mix. Add the flour. Continue stirring the mixture until flour is absorbed by the dough. Pour it on a transparent foil and shaped like a circle to you more easily inserted into a tray then. Cover it with foil and let it postegne in refrigerator for 15-20 minutes or in the freezer for 10-15 minutes. Prepare a baking dish with the pendulum bottom diameter 20-23 cm by covering the bottom with baking paper and brush parties and butter. The dough can be rolled out, it is difficult. Directly transfer it into the tray and push it until it spread evenly over the bottom and sides. Preheat oven on 200C. Prick dough with fork.

Tillia, also I have seen to the marshes and covered with jam. I do not know whether it is the same, but still say that protect it from moisture.
