To prepare crust: Combine flour, sugar, salt and mace in processor. Using on/off turns, cut in chilled butter and vegetable shortening until mixture resembles coarse meal. Gradually blend in enough water by Tablespoonfuls to form moist clumps. Gather dough into ball. Divide dough into 2 pieces. Flatten each into disk. Wrap each in plastic and refrigerate. 1 hour.

Roll out 1 dough disk on lightly floured surface to 12" diameter round. Transfer to 9" diameter deep dish glass pie plate. Trim dough overhang to ½". Brush edge of crust lightly with water. Transfer apple mixture to crust, mounding in center. Roll out second dough disk to 12" diameter round. Place atop apples. Trim dough overhang to 1 inch; reserve scraps. Fold top crust edge under bottom crust edge, pressing to seal. Crimp edge decoratively.

Reroll pastry scraps and cut out leaf shapes. Brush 1 side of each leaf with milk and arrange, milk side down, decoratively atop crust. Cut several slits in crust to allow steam to escape. Brush crust with milk; sprinkle with remaining 1 teaspoon sugar.
