Italians, I suppose are oblivious to YIELDS. This recipe Place requires no electric beaters or plastic bowls - just lots of love in MANUAL LABOR WITH A WOODEN SPOON.
Ingredients:
* til brown, about 3 minutes on each side.
after each addition mix well
2 sticks of butter or margarine ( room temp.)
--i use one stick of each
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
3 large or extra large eggs slightly beaten
( room temp. )
1 jigger of brandy
1 jigger of vanilla
juice of 1 medium orange
juice of 1/2 medium lemon
1 teaspoon salt
1 jigger 1/2 and 1/2
1 cup of flour with 1 tablespoon baking powderadd about 6 more cups of flour (one cup at a time )
Directions:
1. Have heated in a large skillet or heavy pot about 2 inches of oil ( Mazola ) to fry
2. After mixing all the ingredients, roll out portions of dough with a rolling pin very thin.
3. When you think you have it thin enough roll out some more. Cut diamond shape cookies with a ravioli cutter.
4. Place into hot oil and deep fry. Some of the cookies bubble up in the middle as they are cooking When brown remove and drain on paper towels.
5. Sprinkle with granulated sugar as they cool. I prefer to use the granulated sugar as powder sugar tends to soften the cookies.
