Use a rolling pin lightly dusted with flour, and roll the dough onto a sheet of parchment paper that is also lightly dusted with flour. Rolling the dough on parchment prevents it from sticking to the countertop, as well as preventing the use of too much flour (which can toughen the dough). As you roll out the dough you will notice tiny little dots of cold butter, which is a good thing! These will ensure a light, flaky crust.
