Pigs In A Blanket With Homemade Pastry Dough

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 cup shortening
• 1/2 cup cold butter
• 1 cup milk
• 10 crushed Zwieback or Holland rusks (1-1/4 cups)
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 1-3/4 pounds ground beef
• 1-3/4 pounds
• sausage
• Dijon mustard, optional

1. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar and baking powder. Cut in shortening and butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add milk, tossing with a fork until dough forms a ball. Divide dough into three portions. Refrigerate until chilled.
2. Meanwhile, for filling, in a large bowl, combine Zwieback crumbs, salt and pepper. Crumble beef and pork over mixture and mix well. Shape rounded tablespoonfuls of meat mixture into 3-in. logs; set aside.
3. Preheat oven to 350u0b0. On a floured surface, knead one portion of dough 8-10 times. Roll dough to 1/8-in. thickness; cut with a floured 3-in. round cutter.
4. Place one log in the center of each circle. Brush edges of dough with water; fold dough over filling and pinch edges to seal. Reroll scraps. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
5. Place on greased racks in shallow baking pans. Bake 35-40 minutes or until a thermometer reads 160u0b0. Serve with mustard if desired.
