How To Make cherry turnovers...... "snow on the mountain"

Step 1Mix flour and salt, add crisco, add cold water. Mix till it is very crumbly. -
Step 2Pat out to form a disc 3/4 inch deep. Wrap in saran and chill a couple hours, or over night. When you are ready roll out the dough as thin as workable, then cut into 5 inch squares. Brush beaten egg yolk with a couple drops of wares and brush on the top of triangles. Put on your baking sheet. Add 1 teaspoon of cherries to the center of the square. Brush some water along two sides of the square. Turn 1/2 of square over to form a triangle. Press and seal to the water edges with a fork.
