Ingredients:  
4 cups Flour, sifted
1 1/2 tsp. Salt
1 tsp. Baking Powder
1 tbsp. Sugar
1 tbsp. Shortening
1 pkg. Active Dry Yeast
1/4 cup Warm Water
1 1/4 cup (approximately) scalded Milk, cooled
Shortening for frying

Directions:
Directions:
Combine dry ingredients and cut in tbsp. shortening. Dissolve yeast in lukewarm water and add to scalded milk. Make a well in center of dry ingredients; add cooled liquid and work into dough. Knead dough 15 to 20 times and set aside for approximately 10 minutes.

Add additional shortening to skillet or frying pan and begin heating. Meanwhile, roll dough to 1/4" thickness or slightly thinner, then cut in squares to triangles and fry in heated grease. If the grease is hot, the sopapillas will puff up and become hollow shortly after being in the hot grease. If they brown too quickly, reduce temperature. Drain sopapillas on paper towels and serve.

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Can be served as bread with any Mexican meal, especially good when served with honey. Can also be served as the main course when served with refried beans or meat and stuffing the sopapilla with taco toppings. May also be dusted with a sugar-cinnamon mixture and served as a dessert.
