This is my mom's recipe. Very Good!

• Ready In: 20 mins
• Yields: 1 pie crust

Ingredients

• 7  tablespoons  crisco  lard
• 3  tablespoons boiling water
• 1  teaspoon milk
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
• 1 1⁄4 cups flour

Directions

1. Whip the first 3 ingredients with a fork until it's all creamy.
2. Add the last 2 ingredients and put into a dough ball with your hands.
3. Roll it out between 2 sheets of wax paper.
4. Put into pie pan and roll under the edges on top evenly, making ridges using your 2 fingers, around the top.
5. Prick the whole the dough all around with a fork so the air can escape while baking unless it is for a pumpkin pie, because no pre-baking is necessary.
6. Bake at 450 degrees.
7. After 5 minutes, if the crust is bubbling up, prick it more with the fork.
8. Bake it for about 15 minutes till golden brown.
