Cut shortening into sopapilla mix until well blended.  Add 3/4 cup warm water and stir until all is moist.  Turn dough onto a lightly floured work surface and knead until smooth.  cover with a towel or plastic wrap and let dough rest for 30 minutes.  Roll dough out on a lightly floured work surface into a rectangle about 1/8 inch thick.  Cut the dough into 4 inch squares.  Heat 1 inch of oil to 400 degrees.  When oil is hot place the sopapillas into the oil and hold them under with a slotted spoon until they puff up.  Turn over after a few seconds and fry the other side until light golden brown.  Lift sopapillas out and drain on a wire rack.  Top with your favorite topping or sprinkle with powdered sugar or cinnamon-sugar.  Serve at once.
