Ingredients

 * 4 cups all-purpose flour
 * 2 tsp. salt
 * 2 tsp. baking powder
 * 4 tbs. shortening (not liquid oil)
 * 1 1/2 cups warm water (approximately)
 * 1/2 pound shredded muenster cheese

Directions

 * 1) Combine dry ingredients, cut shortening into dry ingredients with pastry blender; add warm water a few drops at a time and work dough with hands until manageable. Knead dough 15-20 times then allow to stand for 10 minutes.
 * 2) Form dough into balls the size of an egg; roll out one at a time until they are 6 inches in diameter. Add some of the cheese on top then put another layer of the tortilla.
