Mix flour, salt, powdered sugar, and butter for the crust.

Add beaten egg and water to the mixture.

Roll the dough on a floured surface.

Spread 1 cup of shortening on top of the dough.

Fold the dough and place it in the fridge for 30 minutes.

Roll out the dough again on a floured surface.

Spread the remaining cup of shortening on top.

Fold the dough and place it in the fridge for 2 hours.

Roll out a small batch of dough on a floured surface (divide dough into fourths).

Cut the dough into 6 x 1/2-inch strips.

Spiral wrap the strips around clothes pins, overlapping the dough.

Bake on ungreased cookie sheets for 12-15 minutes at 370°F.

Remove from clothes pins while still warm (about 5 minutes after taking from the oven) to prevent breakage.

Place all filling ingredients in a bowl and mix well.

Use a piping bag or cookie press to fill each cooled cookie.

Dust with powdered sugar.
