Ingredients

3 c. all-purpose flour
1 tsp. salt
1 c. vegetable oil
4 to 6 Tbsp. hot tap water
3 eggs
1/3 c. sugar
1 1/2 c. milk

Preparation

Combine flour and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt in mixing bowl.
Cut in shortening until mixture resembles bread crumbs.
Mix in enough water to form a dough that sticks together.
Shape dough into ball. Cut in half.
Roll out each half on lightly floured surface, until 1/8-inch thick.
Cut 12 circles from each half, using fluted cookie cutter, 3-inches in diameter.
Fit pastry circles into greased muffin cups, pressing sides so they reach rims.
