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.
