2 c. flour
2 tbsp. sugar
2 tbsp. baking powder
1/2 tbsp. salt
1/3 c. shortening
1/2 c. cold water

Sift dry ingredients. Cut shortening in as for pastry. Add water to hold dough together. Roll onto floured board and cut into 3 or 4 inch circles. Place a spoonful of filling that you like in the center; seal edges. Bake at 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes. I use apple pie or any fruit filling.

Mexican chocolate is made the way we make hot cocoa with one exception - a cinnamon stick is allowed to simmer in the chocolate. A new delightful taste is given to hot chocolate.
