In a medium bowl, combine the flour with the cinnamon and cloves. Cut the 2 sticks of chilled butter into tablespoons and add to the flour mixture. Cut the butter in with a fork or pastry cutter until crumbly.
Slowly stir in the water starting with ½ cup. Add more water and/or flour to the mixture until it forms a soft dough that isn’t sticky and will form into a ball. Divide into two equal pieces, cover and chill for 2 hours.
Flour a surface and roll out one of the dough pieces until about ¼- inch thick.
