Ingredients:

Serving

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
1 tbsp shortening
3/4 cup warm water
oil, for deep-frying
honey (optional)
butter (optional)

Directions:

In a medium bowl, mix flour, salt and baking powder.
Cut in shortening with 2 knives (or you can use your fingers) until mixture resembles cornmeal. Stir in warm water until all ingredients are moist.
Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead until smooth, about 5 minutes. Cover dough with plastic wrap or a dry towel.
Let rest at least 30 minutes. For later use, dough may be placed in a plastic bag and refrigerated 24 hours.
Cut dough in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough into a saucepan or deep fryer (I prefer to just use the counter).
Heat to 400 degrees F (205 C). Carefully drop dough squares 1 at a time into hot oil.
Cook until puffed and golden brown, turning once. If sopaipillas do not puff immediately, oil is not hot engouh. Drain cooked sopaipillas on paper towels.
Serve immediately with honey. Makes 35-40.
You can also roll dough into circles and cut them in half, or watever shape you'd like.
