Step 1

Defrost dough completely if frozen.

Step 2

Roll dough out on wax paper to help it not stick to counter/board.

Step 3

Cut dough in desired size pieces (use photo for reference).

Step 4

Flatten out dough pieces with fingers.

Step 5

Pour oil in large pot so it's approximately 2 inches high.

Step 6

Heat oil on medium heat about 5 minutes until it bubbles when you add tiny piece of dough.

Step 7

Add pieces of dough very carefully so not to splash yourself.

Step 8

Flip dough over after the edges are golden brown (about 3-4 minutes per side).

Step 9

Dough is ready when both sides are golden brown.

Step 10

Use tongs to place each piece on a plate with a paper towel.

Step 11

After the fried dough has cooled enough to handle, add each piece 1 by 1 to a paper lunch bag filled with sugar (close top) and shake.

Step 12

Serve immediately with butter if desired (I don't think they need it).

Step 13

Coffee goes great, too.

Step 14

TIP: You can add cinnamon to sugar for a Fall treat.
