Tatizas (Chamorro Snack) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 cups flour
    1/2 cup sugar
    1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
    1/3 cup shortening (I use Crisco)
    1 (13 1/2 ounce) can coconut milk (Chaokoh is the only brand we use)
Preparation
    Mix together flour, sugar, and baking powder.
    Mix in shortening with a fork.
    Add coconut milk and mix well using your hands.
    If dough is too dry, add 1 Tbs of water at a time until dough is a little moist and holds together enough to make a ball.
    From the big ball of dough make 6-8 mini dough balls.
    Roll out dough ball on a floured board until thin.
    Place rolled out dough in pan over medium heat (do not add oil or butter to pan!).
    Use a fork to poke out any air bubbles.
    Brown on both sides.
    Refrigerate any left over dough in ziplock bag for 1 week.
