I made funnel cake!!!

Dude! I haven't had funnel cake in years!

Oh, wait--the last time I deep fried I set the house on fire. Mail me some?

Wow, that's different. I don't think I have ever seen anything like it. What is the tradition with this cake?

They do like churros though. (A Portuguese/Spanish fried-dough pastry-based snacks made mostly at funfairs. They are also made from potatoe dough sometimes. See picture below to see)



Mmm I like them with cinammon and sometimes with chocolate inside.



Sorry to ruin your thread, but they do look similiar.

Funnel cake :

Any kind of fried dough is fantastic.

I was raised on funnel cakes, but because of the local Italian populace, we also had zeppole - fried dough balls served with powdered sugar or red sauce(!)

Churros are fantastic as well, mostly for the sugar/cinnamon coating. Cleaner than powdered sugar.

Then there's my wife's recipe I have yet to try - bolinho de chuva (rain balls). I imagine it's more of the same heaven as all the others.

zeppole! :

There's a street fair held near here (in October and late May/early June) and the zeppole are one of the reasons for going... mmmmmm

Tiny Terror,

Thanks so much for sharing this! I never even thought about trying to make it. Now, I will.
