I've been fixing these cookies for so long, I don't recall where the recipe came from. They're a must at our house. Ingredients:
3 egg yolks |
3 tablespoons sugar |
3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream |
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom |
1 to 1-1/4 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
oil for deep-fat frying |
confectioners' sugar |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, beat egg yolks and sugar until light and lemon-colored. Add cream and cardamom; mix well. Gradually add flour until dough is firm enough to roll.
2. On a lightly floured surface, roll into a 15-in. square. Using a pastry wheel or knife, cut into 15-in. x 1-1/2-in. strips; cut diagonally at 2-1/2-in. intervals. In the center of each diamond, make a 1-in. slit, pull one end through slit.
3. In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375°. Fry bows, a few at a time, for 20-40 seconds or until golden brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Yield: 4 dozen.
