| Hanukkah Frying Pan Cookies (Soofganyot)
6 tablespoons of butter or margarine; soft
1 1/4 cup of sugar
1 Lemon; grated peel
a dash of salt
4 Eggs
3 1/2 cups of flour
1 teaspoon of baking powder
Oil
2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon
Cream butter and 1 cup of sugar in bowl until light and fluffy. Add lemon peel and salt. Beat in eggs one at a time. Sift together flour and baking powder in separate bowl. Fold into butter mixture to make dough. Heat enough oil for frying in deep frying pan to 360ºF. Shape dough into small balls and drop about 8 at a time into hot oil. Fry 3 minutes. Turn with slotted spoon and let dough fry until golden brown, 2 to 3 more minutes. Lift out cookies with slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Combine remaining 1/4 cup sugar and cinnamon, and while cookies are warm, sprinkle on the sugar and cinnamon. Source: Judy Zeidler.
