4 dozen

2 whole eggs

2 egg yolks

3/4 cup sugar

3 cups flour

1/2 cup melted butter or margarine

1/2 cup light cream

1 t. baking powder oil for deep frying confectioner's sugar

Beat whole eggs with egg yolks until thick and lemon-colored.

Gradually beat in sugar. Stir in melted butter and cream. Sift 2

cup flour with baking powder and stir into egg mixture. Then stir

in enough additional flour so that dough cleans the bowl. Roll onto

lightly floured surface until 1/8" thick. Cut into strips or diamonds

3-4 inches long and 1-1/2 inches wide. Cut a slit in center of each strip and pull one end completely through slit. Drop into deep fat

(375 on frying thermometer) and fry 2-3 minutes, until golden brown

on both sides. Drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with sifted

confectioner's sugar.
