Taco Bell Style Cinnamon Twists

1 serving(s)

Ingredients

  • 5 large egg yolks, well beaten
  • 5 tablespoons sour cream
  • 5 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon almond extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cinnamon
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 16 ounces powdered sugar (optional)

Directions

  1. 1

    Combine first set of ingredients, adding each ingredient as listed, and enough flour so that the dough is no longer sticky, but still very soft.

  2. 2

    Using a floured working surface, roll small portions of dough at a time to paper-thin. Cut into 2 x 5-inch strips, and arrange in single layer on oiled cookie sheets.

  3. 3

    In a deep, heavy saucepan or deep fryer, bring oil (at least 3 inches deep) to 400°F Carefully add a few strips to the oil. They'll fall to the bottom but will surface as they brown (about 2 minutes).

  4. 4

    Lift out with tongs and drop into brown grocery bag containing seasoning mix. Gently shake then remove coated strips. Serve immediately.
