Fried and glazed with confectioners' sugar frosting. Ingredients:
4 tablespoons white sugar |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon orange zest |
4 tablespoons shortening |
1 cup hot water |
1 cup all-purpose flour |
3 eggs |
1 1/2 tablespoons shortening |
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar |
3 tablespoons cream |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. Put 4 tablespoons sugar, salt, shortening and orange rind in saucepan with 1 cup hot water. Bring to a boil. Mix in 1 cup of flour. Cook until thick, stirring constantly. Remove from heat, and cool slightly. Beat in one egg at a time, beating each one in thoroughly before adding another.
2. Using a rose tip, press dough through pastry bag, in desired shape, onto a well-greased square of heavy paper. Turn paper upside down and let crullers drop into deep, hot fat (375 degrees F - 190 degrees C). Fry until well puffed up and golden brown in color, about 6 to 7 minutes. Drain on unglazed paper. Ice with confectioners' frosting.
