1 3/4 c. all purpose flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. shortening
2/3 c. cold water

Preheat the oil to 385 degrees in skillet. Sift together dry ingredients. Cut in shortening until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add water by teaspoon until stiff dough is formed. Knead until smooth. Cover dough and let rest for 10 minutes. Roll 1/8 inch thin rectangle 12 x 15 inches. Cut into 2-3 inch squares. Drop 2-3 squares at a time into the hot oil, turning to brown. Break off squares and fill with honey to eat.
