Steps:
- In a large bowl, mix together the flour, salt, and baking powder. Add the shortening, and use your hands to integrate it well with the flour.
- Pour the hot water into the bowl, little by little. Work the dough with your fingers, mixing the dry ingredients with the water until you form a dough.
- On your table or countertop, knead the dough for about 4-5 minutes until it is smooth. Form a ball with the dough and place it back in the bowl.
- Cover the dough with a plastic or kitchen napkin and let it rest for at least 20 minutes. This resting time helps the gluten to develop and make it easy for you to roll out the dough and form the sopapillas.
- After the resting time, slightly knead the dough again and then form it back into a ball. Flatten the ball a little bit, then cut it into 4 pieces using a knife or a pastry cutter.
- Pour the oil into a large pot and turn the heat to medium-low. The oil should reach an average temperature of 350ºF.
- Roll the 4 pieces of dough to form smaller balls. Place one on your working surface and set the other 3 pieces aside, covered with plastic wrap. Form a round disk with the dough using a rolling pin. The disc should be about 6 inches in diameter, and ⅛ to ¼ of an inch in thickness.
- Once you form the disc, cut it into four pieces. These pieces will look like triangles. Carefully place each one into the hot oil. Make sure you do not overcrowd the pot. Once the dough triangles are in the oil, they will inflate almost immediately. Continue cooking until the bottoms of the sopapillas are medium golden, then turn them to cook on the other side until light brown and crispy. The sopapillas will take a total of about 4-5 minutes to cook completely.
- Remove the sopaipillas from the oil using a slotted spatula, and place them on a plate covered with paper towels (to absorb any excess oil) Follow steps 6-8 to continue forming and cooking the remaining sopapillas.
- To serve the sopaipillas, dust them with the confectioner's sugar and ground cinnamon, and then drizzle them with honey (or Piloncillo syrup, if you have any).

SOPAIPILLAS RECIPE BY TASTY
These deep fried pastries are a classic treat in New Mexican households. Delicious served with tea or coffee, their light sweetness perfectly balances out a spicy meal. The dough comes together quickly, so be sure to warm up your oil for deep frying before you start. Once you drop the sopaipillas in the fryer, flip them immediately so that they form that signature pillow puff. They are great to serve to a crowd - but they sure won't last long!

Steps:
- Make the dough: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, vegetable oil, baking powder, and salt. Add the milk and warm water and stir with a rubber spatula until a sticky dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 2-3 minutes, until no longer sticky.
- Place the dough on a plate or baking sheet and cover with a damp cloth. Let rest for 15 minutes.
- Divide the dough into 3 equal balls, cover again with damp cloth, and let rest for 30-60 minutes.
- Make the chocolate dipping sauce: Add the dark and milk chocolate and coconut oil to a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring in between, until the chocolate is melted. Stir in the ancho chile powder and cinnamon. Whisk in the warm cream, 1 tablespoon at a time, until a thin dipping sauce consistency is reached. Stir in the vanilla. Set aside.
- Fill a Dutch oven or large pot fitted with a deep fry thermometer with about 3 inches (7 cm) of vegetable oil. Heat the oil until it reaches 400°F (200°C).
- While the oil is heating, shape the sopaipillas: On a lightly floured surface, roll out 1 of the 3 dough balls to a 8-inch (20 cm) square. Cut into 4 4-inch (10 cm) squares, discarding any extra trimmed dough. Place the squares on a baking sheet and cover with a damp towel. Repeat with the remaining dough.
- Line a baking sheet with paper towels and set near the pot of oil.
- Gently transfer one square of dough into the hot oil as a tester--it should float to the surface within a few seconds. As soon as the dough floats, flip it over immediately. Keep turning the dough every 5 seconds or so, until it puffs up like a pillow and turns light golden brown, about 1 minute. Remove from the oil and drain on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough squares, frying 2-4 at a time, or however many will fit without crowding the pot.
- Drizzle half of the sopaipillas with the honey and dust with the powdered sugar. Serve the other half with chocolate dipping sauce. Serve immediately.
- Enjoy!

SOPAPILLAS
If oil is the right temperature, sopapillas will puff up. We like to make with chili or stew. You can also shake them in a bag with cinnamon/sugar and make something that tastes like a churro.

SOPAIPILLAS
Sopaipillas are fried Mexican pastries that are eaten for breakfast or dessert, usually w/honey or cinnamon sugar. They are so easy to make even if you have a ready commercial source for them & are esp fun as the finale of a Tex-Mex dinner. The source for this recipe was Diana Rattray, Southern U.S. Cuisine. (NOTE: This recipe has been corrected by my site source & those changes to the liquid ingredients are now reflected here as well.)
