1 C. sugar
1/2 C. thick sour cream or soft butter or lard
6 to 6 1/2 C. flour
2 eggs
2 1/2 C. sour milk or buttermilk
1 rounded t. baking soda
1 t. nutmeg, cinnamon, or mace
Recipe
Beat together sugar,eggs, and thick sour cream or soft
butter or lard. Pour in the milk or buttermilk and soda.
Then mix very lightly with the sifted flour. For flavor
use mace or nutmeg. This dough should not be very stiff
and not worked much, otherwise the crullers will be tough.
Roll out 1/2 inch thick. Cut in shape desired and let raise
a few minutes until th elard gets well heated. When raised
and brown on bottom, turn with a fork. The fat must sizzle
when you put a few drops of water in it. Otherwise it is
not hot enough. Roll in sugar. These crullers will keep
fresh for a week in a stone crock.
