Ingredients:

  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp butter or 1 tbsp margarine
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1 1/2 cups lukewarm water
  • 2 cups shortening
  • 1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 1 tbsp vanilla

Directions:

  1. CRUST: Mix flour, salt, powdered sugar, and butter for pie dough; then add beaten egg and water to mixture.
  2. Roll on a floured surface and spread 1 cup shortening on top of dough, fold up and place in fridge for 30 minutes.
  3. Roll out dough again on floured surface and spread remaining cup of shortening on top, fold and place in fridge for 2 hours.
  4. Roll out small batch of dough on floured surface (I divide dough into fourths).
  5. Cut into 6 x 1/2-inch strips and spiral wrap around clothes pins (overlap the dough, don't leave spaces).
  6. Bake on ungreased cookie sheets for 12-15 minutes at 370°F.
  7. Remove from clothes pin while still warm (about 5 minutes after taking from the oven) to prevent breakage.
