- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 quart vegetable oil for frying
- 1 cup confectioners' sugar
- 1 cup honey (optional)
- Mix the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar together. Cut in the butter until well-blended. Stir in the eggs and mix thoroughly.
- Knead dough on a floured surface until dough is elastic. Let dough rest for 1 hour.
- Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Divide dough into 4 parts, keeping each piece covered until ready to use. Roll each piece into a thin rectangle, about 8x10 inches. Cut dough into strips about 8 inches long and 3/4 inch wide. Tie each strip into loose knot.
- Fry cookies in hot oil 3 to 4 at a time, until golden brown. Transfer cookies to a paper towel-lined plate. Drain well and sprinkle with confectioners' sugar and honey, if desired. Serve hot or cold. Store any uneaten cookies in an airtight container (see Editor's Note).
