MRS. RUBENSTEIN'S SNOWFLAKE COOKIES
To recall the miracle of Hanukkah, dishes fried in oil are prepared during the holiday festivities. The mother of our executive editor used to dazzle her family with these cookies-each one slightly different from the next.
Yield Makes about 35 cookies
Number Of Ingredients 6
Steps:
- In a small bowl with a fork stir together the confectioners' sugar and the cinnamon until the mixture is combined well. In a bowl with a fork blend the flour, the eggs, the granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt until the mixture forms a dough. On a lightly floured surface knead the dough until it is soft and elastic, roll it out slightly less than 1/4 inch thick, and cut into 2-inch squares. Make a 1-inch slit through the center of each square and pull one corner of the square through the slit.
- In a heavy kettle heat 3 inches of the oil until it registers 375°F. on a deep-fat thermometer and in it fry the cookies in batches for 1 minute on each side, or until they are pale golden. Transfer the cookies as they are fried with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain and, while they are still warm, sprinkle them with the cinnamon sugar.
