Ingredients
-
3 large egg yolks, room temperature
-
3 tablespoons sugar
-
3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
-
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
-
1 to 1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
-
Oil for deep-fat frying
-
Confectioners' sugar
Directions
-
1.
Beat egg yolks and granulated sugar until pale yellow. Add cream and cardamom; mix well. Gradually add flour until dough is firm enough to roll.
-
2.
On a lightly floured surface, roll into a 15-in. square. Using a pastry wheel or knife, cut into 15x1-1/2-in. strips; cut diagonally at 2-1/2-in. intervals. In the center of each diamond, make a 1-in. slit; pull one end through slit.
-
3.
In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375°. Fry bows, a few at a time, until golden brown on both sides, 20-40 seconds. Drain on paper towels. Dust with confectioners' sugar.
