Sopaipillas With Honey

Filed under: — admin

Sopaipillas With Honey

1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
1 tablespoon solid vegetable shortening
1/3 cup warm water
Vegetable oil for frying
Honey or confectioners’ sugar
In a small bowl stir flour with baking powder, salt and sugar. Add vegetable shortening and cut in with 2 knives until mixture resembles corn meal. Add water and stir with a fork to make a stiff dough. Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead 5 minutes, until smooth and elastic. Put dough back in bowl, cover and let stand 30 minutes. Pour oil into a saucepan to a depth of 3 inches; heat to 375° F. On a lightly floured surface roll out dough to an 18×6 inch rectangle. Cut into 2×3 inch rectangles. Slide several dough rectangles into the hot oil (do not fry more than one layer at a time) and fry 1 minute on each side, until golden and puffed. Lift out with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining dough. Serve Sopaipillas warm, drizzled with honey or sprinkled with confectioners’ sugar.
