Destructions (Instructions)

  1. in a skillet (kind of deep, but not sauce pan deep) heat about 2 cups of cooking oil (type is not important :canola or vegetable) on medium high heat until hot. (A good test is to drop a pinch of flour if it sizzles without smoke the oil is ready)
  2. Beat egg and milk ( not too hard, they don't like it) Mix remaining ingredients in separate bowl, slowly adding the egg mixture. Beat until smooth. (use a mixer if you must, but by hand is so much more fun)
  3. Using a funnel (or a gallon size ziploc with a corner cut off) drop mixture into hot oil in a spiral starting at the center and working your way out. Make sure to overlap some of the mix to ensure it comes out as one piece.
  4. fry for 2-3 minutes, flipping one time,when the bottom has become golden brown.
  5. Remove from oil ( I like to use a metal slotted spoon to reduce the amount of oil) place on plate and sprinkle with powder sugar.
  6. Serve and enjoy! Carmel and chocalate sauces (syrup) make good toppings, feel free to

    It is very simple, in my house we make these twice a month at least. Saves on snack food and they are great with hot chocolate!

    I have a feeling that these lovely cakes will find their way onto our menu at home on a regular basis. Thanks.
