I got this from my Memaw, my cooking idol. Keeps well refrigerated and I have frozen it and used it with great results. I have used this over and over again, especially at holidays, and it always turns out right.
Ingredients:
4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1 3/4 cups shortening
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon vinegar
1/2 cup cold water
Directions:
1. Combine dry ingredients; cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse meal.
2. Stir in remaining ingredients.
3. Divide dough into 5 equal parts; shape each into ball and wrap tightly. Chill.
4. May be stored up to 2 weeks in refrigerator. And at least 2 months or more in the freezer.
