Rolling Out Pie Crusts

For today's Works for me Wednesday I wanted to share the easiest way to roll out pie crusts. I use a warm damp cloth and wipe down the counter. Then I cover it with plastic wrap (usually two pieces to completely cover the width and just long enough to accommodate a rolled out pie crust). The dampness holds the plastic wrap to the counter. Next I sprinkle it with flour, slightly flatten the ball of dough, sprinkle it with a bit of flour then cover with plastic wrap the same size as the bottom. Now the dough can be rolled out easily between the sheets. Once it is rolled out the dough will stick on the top sheet when you lift it off so you can lay the dough right in the pan and just peel away the plastic wrap. So easy and the best part is that you just gather up the plastic wrap off the counter and toss it away- no mess. You won't have to wipe down the counter or even wash the rolling pin!
