Bohemian Pastry - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 cups flour
1 1/2 cups vegetable shortening
1/2 cup butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/4 ounces yeast
1/2 cup milk
2 egg yolks, slightly beaten
1 1/2 cups preserves or 1 1/2 cups marmalade
powdered sugar, for dusting

Preparation

Cut the flour and salt into the butter and shortening as you would for pie dough.
Mix sugar, yeast, milk, egg yolks in a bowl.
Add the liquid mixture to the flour/shortening mixture and mix well. Should form a nice ball of dough.
Cover the dough ball and refrigerate overnight or at least 5 hours.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Remove from the refrigerator and roll thin like pie crust.
Cut in 3 inch squares.
Put preserves in the center and fold each pastry from corner.
Use a fork (or your thumb) to seal the edges.
Place on a lightly greased cookie sheet (you could also use parchment paper) and bake 20 to 25 minutes in a 375\u00b0F degree oven.
Dust with powdered sugar, cool to touch, and enjoy. Keeps well in a sealed container. .
