Ingredients

• 240 grams All-purpose flour
• 250 milliliters Milk
• 3 large Eggs
• 25 grams Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 1 liter Vegetable oil (for frying)
• 50 grams Powdered sugar (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined and slightly frothy.

Step 2

Add the milk to the bowl and whisk until the mixture is smooth.

Step 3

Sift the all-purpose flour into the wet mixture gradually, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Continue until a smooth, pancake-like batter forms. The consistency should be thin but slightly thicker than crepe batter.

Step 4

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or fryer over medium heat to a temperature of about 180°C (350°F). Use a thermometer to ensure the oil does not overheat.

Step 5

Submerge a rosette iron mold into the hot oil for 1-2 minutes to preheat it. This step is crucial to ensure the batter adheres properly to the mold.

Step 6

Remove the hot mold from the oil and dip it into the batter, being careful not to cover the top of the mold. The batter should coat only the sides.

Step 7

Immediately place the batter-coated mold into the hot oil. Hold it there for a few seconds until the batter begins to fry and release from the mold. Gently shake the mold to fully release the cookie, then let it fry until golden brown, about 30-40 seconds per side.

Step 8

Once golden, use a slotted spoon to remove the cookie and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Step 9

Repeat this process until all the batter is used, reheating the mold periodically to ensure proper coating.

Step 10

Once the cookies have cooled slightly, dust them generously with powdered sugar before serving.
