  (You need a metal funnel to make these delicious
  Pennsylvania Dutch specialties. )

  about 1 quart - Corn oil Confectioners sugar

  Stir together first 5 ingredients. Mix egg and milk;
  add to flour mixture. Stir until batter is smooth.
  Pour oil into skillet (no more than 1/3 full). Heat to
  375 degrees. An electric fry pan is excellent for
  this. Holding forefinger over end of funnel, pour 1/4
  cup into funnel. Place over hot oil and remove finger
  to let batter flow. As batter flows, move funnel in a
  circle to form a spiral cake. Fry, turning once, 2
  minutes or until golden brown. Drain and sprinkle with
  sugar. Repeat. Makes enough for 6 funnel cakes.

  Note: instead of the sugar, try drizzling with a thin
  icing and sprinkle with chopped nuts.
