1 package dry yeast
1/4 cup warm water (105u00b0 to 115u00b0)
4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon shortening
1 1/2 cups milk, scalded and cooled
Vegetable oil

Dissolve yeast in warm water; let stand 5 minutes.
2
Combine flour, salt, baking powder, and sugar; cut in shortening. Make a well in center of mixture. Add yeast mixture and milk, mixing well. (Dough will be sticky).
3
Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead 15 to 20 times. Roll dough to 1/4-inch thickness; cut into 3-inch squares.
4
Heat 1/2 inch of oil in a large skillet to about 370u00b0. Gently place dough squares in oil, a few at a time, lightly pressing down with a spatula until dough starts to bubble and puff. Turn and cook on other side until barely golden in color; drain. Sprinkle with powdered sugar or serve with honey, if desired.

Note: When frying sopaipillas, leave a few in skillet while adding additional ones. The ones left in the skillet will absorb the heat of the oil and keep it from overheating.
