Funnel Cake Recipe

Here's a favorite country fair funnel cake recipe!

Ingredients:

1 egg
2/3 cup milk
1 1/4 cup flour
2 tbsp. sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking powder

Preparation:

1. Beat the egg and the milk. 

2. Mix the remaining ingredients together and add it to the egg/milk mixture slowly.

3. Beat until smooth.

4. Using a funnel (not pictured), begin in the center and drop some of the batter into hot oil.  Work your way outwards until the desired size is reached.

5. Turn over once halfway through cooking. The cake is done when it is golden brown and crispy.

6. Sprinkle it with powdered sugar or add any toppings you like. 

The picture below shows one topped with a light coating of powdered sugar, strawberry topping, with real strawberries, and whipped cream.

A friend likes to put hot fudge syrup and vanilla ice cream on top.  That's overkill - but it sure tastes great!
