Polish Chrusciki Recipe - Compliments of Greg & Annie Moss
2 eggs
2 tbls powder sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 tbls rum, brandy, or vodka
3 egg yolks
12-4 tbls sour cream or sweet cream
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup plus 2 tbls flour
Powder sugar for dusting
Make a well in flour. Break eggs and egg yolks into well. With a knife, swish around. Add sugar, salt, sour cream (or sweet cream). Cut with knife and add "spirits." Add flour until good consistency. Dough will be real soft.
Roll out dough to 1/8" inch thickness. Cut with knife in strips approximately 2"-3" wide and 3"-4" long. Cut a slit into each strip and bring one end through slit and pull. Deep fry in hot oil (approx 350 degrees) until golden brown. Drain on paper towel and sprinkle w/powder sugar. (Hint-put a few thick slices of
potato into grease to keep the oil from burning).
