Posted - Jun 07 2007 : 08:34:45 AM Funnel Cakes (Fried Dough)
Batter: 2 eggs 1 1/2 c. milk 2 c. flour 1 tsp. baking powder 1/2 tsp. salt
Oil for deep frying Powder sugar for sprinkling
Heat cooking oil in skillet (or deep fryer) until very hot. Put batter in funnel (be sure to cover hole with one finger), then, holding funnel over hot oil (be very careful!), release some of the batter in circular motion to form one funnel cake. Cook to light golden brown on both sides. Remove from oil and place on paper towels. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve warm. _________________

Posted - Jun 07 2007 : 8:19:29 PM This is an awesome batter. My oldest son loves funnel cakes and every once in awhile, we make them. They are so easy to make and I just use my Tupperware blue funnel and use my finger to plug the hole and release to pour and swirl it.
We aren't too picky about it being pretty....'cause we're just going to sprinkle powdered sugar on it and gobble it down.

Posted - Jun 07 2007 : 7:27:04 PM Perfect timing! I just bought a Funnel Cake set today! It's just a pitcher with a pour spout and the mix. I was wondering what I'd do once the mix was gone and now I know! YUM! Sharon
