- 1 pound butter, softened
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons white sugar
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 1/4 cups ice water
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups shortening
- 8 cups confectioners' sugar
- 1 (7 ounce) jar marshmallow creme
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Mix 1/4 pound of the butter with 3 cups of flour, 2 tablespoons white sugar, egg yolks, and water. (Done like making pie dough with a pastry blender.)
- Chill for 1 hour then roll out like pie dough on a floured pastry sheet. Spread another 1/4 pound of the butter over dough. Fold dough together and refrigerate 1 hour. Repeat this procedure until all of the butter is used.
- Cut dough into fourths. Wrap each quarter in plastic wrap. Chill.
- Take out one quarter at a time and allow to stand at room temperature long enough that it softens enough that the dough can be rolled.
- Roll dough out on floured pastry sheet/ board. Cut dough into 1/2 inch wide X 4-5 inch long strips. Wrap around clothes pins or dowel pins pinching ends.
- Bake at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 12-15 minutes until lightly browned. Slide off sticks while still very warm and then cool completely.
- To Make Filling: In a saucepan over medium heat, cook 1 cup milk and 1/2 cup flour until thick stirring constantly. Let cool.
- Cream together shortening, confectioners' sugar, marshmallow cream, and vanilla. Add cooked mixture to creamed mixture and beat till fluffy. Fill cooled pastry curls with filling.
