Answer 1

ELEPHANT EARS

2 c. flour
2 tbsp. sugar
1 tsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking powder
2 tbsp. shortening
1/2 c. water
Oil (for frying)

TOPPING:
1 c. sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon

Blend everything, but water, as you would for pie crust. Add water and shape into a ball. Add a few more drops of water if dough doesn't handle well. If too sticky, add flour. Divide into 10 even balls. Roll out to 9 to 10 inch circles.
Dip in hot oil until brown. Flip, remove and put on cookie sheet. Sprinkle with topping. If thicker, elephant ear will be soft. If thinner, elephant ear will be crispy.

Elephant Ears
by Caryn

16-20 elephant ears
time to make 2½ hours 2¼ hours prep

1 1/4 cups milk
1/4-1/2 cup butter
1 package active dry yeast
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup water (105 to 115ºF.)
5 1/2-6 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 dash freshly grated nutmeg
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
vegetable oil (for frying)
confectioners' sugar or cinnamon sugar

Heat milk with butter until butter melts.

Set aside to cool to lukewarm.

Stir yeast and 1 teaspoon sugar into warm water and let stand until foamy, about 5 to 10 minutes.

In a large bowl, combine milk and yeast mixtures with 2 1/2 cups flour, salt, and nutmeg.

Stir until smooth.

Cover and let stand until bubbly, 30 minutes.

Stir in beaten eggs, then add additional flour to make a soft but not sticky dough.

Turn dough onto a floured board and knead until smooth, supple, and elastic, about 8 minutes.

Return dough to bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm spot until dough is doubled, about 1 1/2 hours.

Punch down and divide into 4 pieces.

Divide each piece into 4 or 5 pieces.

Put several inches of oil in a large, deep pan such as a chicken fryer or heavy dutch oven.

Heat to about 360 degrees F.

Work each ball of dough with the hands, shaping into a large disk, about 10 inches long and 6 inches wide.

Fry one at a time, turning once, until nicely browned.

Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with confectioner's sugar or cinnamon sugar while hot.

Serve at once.

Answer 5

Here are 2 different ones. One with yeast one without.

INGREDIENTS
1 package active dry yeast
1 cup warm water
1 cup warm milk
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon salt
3 tablespoons shortening
4 to 4-1/2 cups flour
Oil for deep-frying
Sugar and cinnamon mixed for topping

In large bowl, combine yeast and warm water until dissolved and let stand 10 minutes. Add warm milk, sugar, salt, shortening and 2 cups of the flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough of the remaining flour to make the dough soft. Turn out onto floured board and knead until elastic. Add more flour if necessary. Place the dough in greased bowl and flip over so top and bottom has grease on it. Cover with towel until double in size. Divide into 15 oval shape balls and make each one about 1/8-inch thick. Fry one oval at a time in the oil until golden brown and flip over to do other side. Remove from oil. Drain and sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon mixture or topping of your choice.
