Never-fail pie crust

Yield: 1 servings

Measure Ingredient
1 cup Crisco or other GOOD
\N \N Shortening
½ cup Boiling water
\N \N Pinch of salt
3 cups Flour.

Mix shortening, salt and boiling water in a large bowl. Whip with a fork until fluffy. Add the flour all at once. Stir until it leaves the side of the bowl. Roll between two sheets of wax paper. Makes enough for a two-crust pie. If using for two one-crust pies, bake at 375 10-12 minutes or until light brown before adding filling.

This also freezes well if made up ahead, if you like to have pie shells on hand for one-crust pies.
