Ingredients

Directions

1. 1

   Bring butter, 1 pinch of salt, 1 tablespoon of sugar and 1⁄8 l water to the boil. Add the flour at once. Stir with a wooden spoon until the dough comes off the bottom of the pot as a lump. Stir for another 1-2 minutes until a white layer forms on the bottom of the pot.

2. 2

   Put the dough into a bowl, immediately add 1 egg and let it cool down for about 10 minutes. Then stir in 4 eggs one after the other with the dough hooks of the mixer. Finally stir in baking powder. Pour the dough into a piping bag with a medium star-shaped spout.

3. 3

   Heat the frying fat in a deep fryer or wide pot to 160-170 °C (if bubbles rise from a wooden skewer held inside, the fat is hot). Mix 3 tablespoons of sugar and cinnamon in a deep plate.

4. 4

   Carefully squirt approx. 3 strips of dough (12-14 cm each) into the hot fat, using a knife to separate them from the spout. Fry the dough strips for approx. 4 minutes until golden brown, turning carefully with a skimmer.

5. 5

   Lift out the pastry, let it drip off on kitchen paper, turn it while still hot in the cinnamon sugar. Serve as desired with chocolate cream.
