Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3 Egg yolks
1 Whole egg
1/2 ts Salt
1/4 c Confectioner's sugar
1 tb Rum flavoring
1 ts Vanilla
1 c Flour
Heat deep fat to 375 F. Beat egg yolks, egg and salt together until
very stiff (about 10 minutes). Blend in confectioners' sugar and
flavorings thoroughly. Add flour all at once; mix well. Turn dough
onto well floured cloth-covered board; knead until surface of dough
is blistered in appearance (about 7 minutes.) Divide dough in halves
and roll out each half very thin. With pastry wheel or knife, cut
dough into diamonds or rectangles about 4x2". Make a 1" slit in
center of each; draw a long point of diamond through slit and curl
back in opposite direction. Fry until delicately browned in deep hot
fat about 1/2 minute on each side. Turn quickly and brown other side.
Drain on absorbent paper. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar just
before serving.
