type: rolled makes: 16 2 cups sifted all-purpose flour 2 teaspoon granulated sugar 3 teaspoons baking powder pinch of salt 2 tablespoons vegetable shortening 3/4 cup water powdered sugar vegetable oil for deep-frying Re-sift flour with sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in shortening until crumbly. Add water and mix until dough holds together. Knead until dough forms a smooth ball. Cover and let stand 20 minutes. Divide dough into four parts. Roll dough to 1/8" thickness between two pieces of wax paper. Carefully remove the top sheet of wax paper. Cut into 3" squares. Cover until ready to fry. Heat oil to 375F. Place a few cookies at a time into the oil. Place the cookie in the oil so that the side that was resting on the wax paper is face up first while frying. Fry until golden brown, turning once. Drain on paper towels. Dust with powdered sugar. Reviews Heather R. Just like I had when I was a kid. |
