Swedish Rosettes Recipe From My Sister Ellyn

Steps:

• 1. Beat eggs with the vanilla, salt and sugar. Add flour and milk alternately, mixing until smooth and same thickness as pancake batter. If it isn't thick enough, add more flour, a tablespoon at a time. If it is too thick, add a teaspoon of milk at a time.
• 2. Over high heat, bring 4 - 5 inches of oil in a sauce pan to 365 degrees. (Use a deep frying thermometer if you have one, or just try to fry and adjust heat as you go). Put the rosette iron in the hot oil for 1 - 2 minutes, the iron has to be hot.
• 3. Quickly dip the hot iron into the batter (about halfway), DO NOT let the batter go over the top of the iron, the rosette will be stuck on the iron because it will fry over the top. Dip and hold the coated iron into the hot oil and fry 20-35 seconds until light golden brown. Slip onto a paper towel to drain oil and cool a little bit.
• 4. In a shallow bowl, combine the cinnamon and sugar, mix together evenly. Dip rosettes in sugar mixture while still warm, or sprinkle or sift it on. You can also sprinkle them with colored sugar sprinkles or powdered sugar. Rosettes aren't sweet until they are sprinkled with sugar!
• 5. *** you can double the recipe, but I usually prefer to take a break between batches, so I make fresh batter each time. *** Store in airtight containers (zipper bags can be used, but won't protect the cookies as they are very fragile!).

Steps:

• Have ready: a jelly roll pan lined with several layers of paper toweling; powdered sugar in a shaker or sieve.
• Whisk eggs, milk, sugar and salt together. Sprinkle in flour a little at a time. Beat until smooth. Let batter sit for 30 minutes.
• Heat 3 - 4" of oil in a small, deep pan to 365°F.
• Stir batter.
• Heat rosette iron by submerging in hot oil for 10 seconds.
• Lift out, shake off excess oil and dip immediately into batter just so the top edge of the iron is even with the surface of the batter. If you dip it too far, the rosette won't come off the iron.
• Plunge the coated iron into the hot oil. Don't let the iron touch the sides or bottom of the pan.
• As soon as the batter puffs, gently pull the iron out. The rosette should slip back into the oil.
• When lightly browned, carefully lift out with a fork or slotted spoon and place on paper toweling to drain.
• Reheat iron and proceed with remaining batter. You'll have to work very quickly. The frying only takes a few seconds.
• Don't be tempted to fry more than two at a time. It will cool the oil too much and you'll get flabby, greasy rosettes. The oil should not go below 355°F.
• After you've fried a few, dust them with powdered sugar.

Steps:

• Whisk together eggs, granulated sugar, milk, and vanilla in a large bowl, then add flour and salt, whisking, until just combined (do not overmix, or cookies will blister).
• Heat oil in a 3- to 4-quart heavy saucepan with rosette iron in it until thermometer registers 370 to 375°F. Carefully lift out iron, letting oil drip off into pan. Dip all but top edge of iron into batter 3 seconds, then submerge iron in oil and fry (batter adhering to iron) until golden, 35 to 40 seconds (do not let go of iron; cookie will shatter if it hits bottom of saucepan). Lift out iron, letting oil drip off, and, working over paper towels, carefully pry off rosette with a fork. Let rosette drain, hollow side down, on paper towels, then make more rosettes in same manner, heating iron in oil 10 seconds before dipping it into batter each time.
• Dust rosettes with confectioners sugar before serving.
• Available at some specialty bakeware shops and Sweet Celebrations (800-328-6722).

Steps:

• Mix egg yolk, 2 tablespoons of sugar, milk and flour together to form a smooth batter.
• Place the rosette iron in the oil and heat oil to 180 C; remove iron.
• Dip the hot iron into batter and hold it over the hot oil for a moment so that the batter firms up a bit.
• Fry the rosette in the hot oil until golden brown, approximately 1 minute.
• Push the rosette from the iron with a fork and drain on paper towel.
• Heat the iron in the oil again before making the next rosette.
• Dip the cooled rosettes in granulated sugar.
• Rosettes keep in a cool place for 8-10 days, and you can also freeze them for up to 2 months.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, beat eggs and sugar; stir in milk and vanilla. Combine flour and salt; gradually add to batter until smooth., Heat 2-1/2 in. of oil to 375° in a deep-fat fryer or electric skillet. Place rosette iron in hot oil, then dip in batter, three-fourths up the sides of iron (do not let batter run over top of iron). Immediately place in hot oil; loosen rosette with fork and remove iron. , Fry rosettes, a few at a time, until golden brown, 1-2 minutes on each side. Remove to paper towel-lined wire racks. Repeat with remaining batter. , For icing, combine the confectioners' sugar, vanilla and enough water to achieve a dipping consistency. Dip edges of rosettes into icing; let dry on wire racks.

Steps:

• Combine eggs, sugar and salt; beat well. Add remaining ingredients and beat until smooth.
• Heat a rosette iron in deep, hot oil (375 degrees) for 2 minutes.
• Drain excess oil from iron. Dip in batter to 1/4 inch from the top of the iron, then dip iron immediately into hot oil (375 degrees).
• Fry rosette until golden, about 30 seconds. Lift out; tip upside down to drain. With fork, push rosette off iron onto a rack placed over paper towels.
• Reheat iron 1 minute; make next rosette.
• Sprinkle rosettes with confectioners' sugar.
