Funnel Cakes

Funnel cakes are similar to Italian fried dough but sweeter.
This is the best recipe I've found for making them.
It's even good for making fresh deep fried donuts.

Funnel Cakes Recipe:

1-2/3 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 egg
1 cup milk
1/4 cup confectioner's sugar
In a mixing bowl, beat together egg and milk. Beat in flour, salt, baking soda, cream of tartar and granulated sugar until smooth.

Heat about 1 inch vegetable oil in frying pan to 375 degrees. Pour half-cup batter through funnel into oil with a circular motion to form a spiral. Fry until lightly brown; turn over to brown the other side. Cook to golden brown, and remove to drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with confectioner's sugar while still warm. Makes 5 to 10 cakes.
