Directions:
- NOTE: You will also need confectioners sugar for dusting and vegetable oil for frying. You may also up the flour to another 1/2 cup in addition to the 1/1/2.
- With a mixer beat the butter, eggs and vanilla extract. On low gradually add 1 cup flour, baking powder and salt. Turn out onto a well floured surface and knead in remaining flour. The dough should be soft and elastic. If still too sticky dust with the additional flour.
- Divide dough in half. Cover the half not using with plastic wrap. Lightly flour a rolling pin and roll out on a floured surface as thin as you can in oblong shape. About 1/4 inch will do.
- With a pastry cutter or knife (you just won't get the rippled edges with a knife) cut the dough into strips about 4 inches long by 2 inches wide. Cut a 1/2 inch slit in the center of the strip. Take one end of the strip and gently pull it through the slit. Hence the bow tie. You can also twist the dough into interesting shapes it's all up to you.
- Continue until all dough has been used.
- In a large saucepan, heat about 2 inches of oil over medium heat. Drop bow ties into oil and fry 3 - 4 bow ties at a time, do not crowd it should lay in a single uncrowded layer until lightly browned and then flip over to fry other side. Remove with tongs or slotted spoon and cool on dish lined with paper towels. Cool completed and dust with confectioners' sugar.
