Ingredients

80 servings

•

12 large egg yolks
•

1 large egg
•

2 tablespoons white sugar
•

1 tablespoon whiskey
•

1 teaspoon salt

•

1 teaspoon vanilla extract
•

2.5 cups all-purpose flour, divided
•

1 quart vegetable oil for frying, or as needed
•

1 cup confectioners' sugar for dusting

Instructions

Whisk egg yolks, egg, sugar, whiskey, salt, and vanilla together in a bowl. Stir in 2 cups flour. If dough is sticky, stir in remaining 1/2 cup flour. Knead dough on a lightly floured surface for 5 minutes. Divide into thirds and cover with plastic wrap.
Heat 1 inch oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Working with one piece of dough at a time, roll on a lightly floured surface until paper-thin. Cut into parallelograms (long diamonds); use a sharp paring knife to cut a slot in the center of each, and pull one point of the diamond through the slot. Repeat to make remaining cookies.
Fry two to four pieces at a time, depending on the size of your pan, until crisp but not browned, 5 to 10 seconds per side. Drain on paper towels and dust with confectioners' sugar when cool.
