Add ice water, 1 Tbsp. at a time, pulsing just until mixture clings together and pulls away from side of food processor container. Remove dough; shape into ball. Flatten dough to 1/2-inch-thick round on large sheet of plastic wrap; wrap securely. Refrigerate 1 hour or until well chilled.

  • Heat oven to 400°F. Place tart on baking sheet. Line with foil, fill with pie weights and bake 15 min. Remove from oven, remove foil and pie weights. Reduce oven temperature to 375°F.
  • Sprinkle bacon and 1 cup cheese onto bottom of crust. Whisk eggs and half-and-half until blended; pour into crust.
