List of Ingredients
4 Eggs
1/4 c Sugar
1 t Vanilla extract
1 t Cinnamon
1 tb Margarine
2 1/2 c Flour
1/2 c Honey
Vegetable oil
Confetti (candy sprinkles)Recipe
In a large bowl, mix together eggs, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and margarine. Add flour, 1 cup at a time. The last 1/2 cup of flour can be added if necessary to make a smooth dough. Let dough stay in bowl, covered with a dish, for 1/2 hour. Roll out portions of dough. Cut dough into strips, rounded like pretzels, then cut in 1/2" pieces. Heat about 2 1/2" of oil in the bottom of a pan.
Fry the pieces of dough, a handful at a time. If you can do this in a frying basket, it will be easier to take them out. Place pieces on papertowels to drain. Heat honey until just under the boiling point. Place strufoli in a bowl and drizzle honey over them, gently tossing. Arrange on a large platter and sprinkle with confetti. (Shape into a mound on a large flat dish or into a wreath.)
