Cover with remaining 1 cup flour, sugar, and salt. Pulse in short bursts until butter is broken down into small pieces, about 1 minute.

Drizzle in ice water. Pulse with longer pulses until mixture turns pale yellow and resembles bread crumbs, 10 to 12 seconds. Scrape down the sides with a spatula. Pulse 1 to 2 more times.
