Directions:Preheat oven to 375°F
Crust
In a medium bowl, combine flour and salt. Using a pastry blender, mix in shortening until you have pea-sized pieces. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of water over the mixture and gently toss using a fork. Repeat this step till you have used all the water. Form pastry into a ball. On a lightly floured surface, use a rolling pin to flatten the ball into a large circle. Don’t let the crust get too thin. It should be around 12 inches in diameter
Filling
Prepare as directed.
Glaze
Combine powdered sugar, water, and melted butter in a small bowl. Whisk until thin. Glaze may be thickened if desired.
Using a circular cookie cutter (about 5½” in diameter) cut 6 circles from the rolled out pie crust. A bowl works well if you don't have a cookie cutter. Slightly roll out the circles. Put ¼ cup of pudding on one side of each circle. Fold over the other half of the crust and crimp the sides of the pie. Check all the edges and corners for a good seal. Tip: use fingers to squeeze the sides together before crimping. Heat one cup of cooking oil in medium saucepan to 300°F degrees or medium heat. Carefully scoop up pies and lay in the heated oil. The pies should cook for about 40 seconds on each side depending on how crispy/soft you like it. Flip pies with tongs or utensils that won’t puncture the pies. Place cooked pies on a wire rack or a plate with paper towels on top to catch the oil. Tip: when moving pies go slowly and use the corners. Glaze pies while still hot or after they have cooled. Glaze the pies repeatedly until all of the glaze has been used. A pastry brush works very well. Chill in the refrigerator for a few minutes after glazing. |
