Funnel Cakes

Ingredients

  • 3 eggs
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 3 to 4 cups flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tsps baking powder



Directions

Beat eggs and add sugar and milk. Sift half the flour, salt and baking powder together and add to milk and egg mixture. Beat the batter smooth and add only as much more flour as needed. Batter should be thin enough to run thru a funel. Drop from funnel into deep, hot fat (375F). Spirals and endless intricate shapes can be made by swirling and cirss-crossing while controlling the funnel spout with a finger. Serve hot with molasses, tart jelly, jam or sprinkle with powdered sugar.
