Reply:I used to make a Chrusciki but didn't really like how it turned out. Then I got this recipe from my neighbor and LOVE it! I think he said he got it from the web but I don't know where.





Ingredients:





12 egg yolks


1 egg


2 tablespoons sugar


1 tsp vanilla extract


2 1/2 cups AP flour


2 pounds of lard


1 Tbs whiskey


1 tsp kosher salt


1/3 cup powdered sugar





Directions:





In a medium bowl, mix together the eggs, sugar, salt, vanilla, and whiskey. Stir in 2 cups of the flour. If the dough is sticky, add the rest of the flour. Knead dough for 5 minutes; divide into three parts.





Melt lard in a deep fryer or deep frying pan. Hot oil should be about 1" deep.


On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough paper thin. Cut into long diamond shapes and make a slot across the center. Pull one point of the diamond through the slot; fry in hot lard for about 5 to 10 seconds on each side. Cookies should not be browned. Drain on paper towels and dust with confectioners' sugar when cool.
