List of Ingredients




7 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup clear brandy or aguardente
5 large eggs
2 ounces baker's yeast
1/4 cup warm milk (110þF - 115þF)
Vegetable oil for frying
1/2 cup sugar

1. Pour the flour into a large bowl; add the melted butter, sugar, and the brandy and mix well. Then add the eggs, one at a time, incorporating the egg after each addition.

3. Grease hands with some oil. Tear off a small piece of dough and stretch it out by hand into the shape of a triangle. Fry in small batches of in 1 or 2 inches of hot oil (350°F/180°C). Mix sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle over warm malassadas. Serve warm or at room temperature.
