Preheat your oven to 350℉
Place the butter in a mixing bowl and allow it to soften, but not melt. Add the powdered sugar and cream together with butter, using an electric mixer or by hand.
Add salt to the bowl of flour and stir to combine.
Gradually mix in the flour and salt to the creamed butter & sugar until fully combined. The dough should be soft and thick.
Press the shortbread dough evenly into your pie pan or baking dish.
Use a fork to poke holes (also known as docking) in the bottom of the crust to allow steam to escape. It helps prevent the crust from puffing up too much while baking.
Bake at 350℉ for 12-15 minutes until the crust is lightly golden and feels firm to touch.
Remove from oven and let it cool to room temperature before adding pie filling.
