SMUCKER’S
Raspberry Twists
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup Crisco shortening
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup Smucker’s* Red Raspberry Preserves
(or Strawberry or Apricot Preserves)
1/4 cup flaked coconut
1. Preheat oven to 450°F.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt and sugar.
Cut in Crisco shortening with a pastry blender or a fork until mixture
resembles coarse crumbs. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients;
add milk all at once. Stir with a fork until the dough clings together.
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface; knead for 10-12 strokes.
Roll dough into an 8-by-15-inch rectangle.
3. Spread Smucker’s preserves over the dough. Sprinkle with coconut.
4. Fold dough in half to make a 4-by-15-inch rectangle. Cut in 1-inch
strips. Holding strips at both ends, twist twice. Place on a lightly
greased baking sheet.
5. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown. Makes 15 twists.
