Homemade Tortillas

Want to make your own flour tortillas?
Here you go:

4 Cup flour
2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp shortening
1 1/4 Cup warm water (approximately)

Mix all dry ingredients. Cut shortening into flour mixture. Add water, a little at a time. Dough should be stiff. Knead untilo no longer sticky. Divide dough into small balls. Roll, turning 1/4 way each time until very thin. (Or use a tortilla press)
Brown on both sides on hot, ungreased griddle (12 tortillas)
