Thin Wandies recipe

1 servings

12 eggs

4 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 cup butter, melted

2 teaspoons salt

1/4 cup baking powder

12 cups all-purpose flour

1 quart oil for frying

2 cups confectioners' sugar for dusting

Heat oil in deep-fryer or large heavy skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, vanilla and melted butter until well blended.

Mix in the salt and baking powder.

Gradually stir in flour with a wooden spoon until dough is stiff.

Turn out onto a floured surface and knead in as much flour as necessary to make a smooth stiff dough.

Dough should not be sticky.

Roll the dough out paper thin and cut into 3 inch squares.

Fry in the hot oil, turning once until golden.

Drain in colander and place them into a waxed paper lined bushel basket.

Dust with confectioners' sugar when cool.
