Time 22m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
6 egg yolks
3 tablespoons sour cream
2 tablespoons white sugar
2 tablespoons butter, softened
1 tablespoon rum
1 pinch salt
2 cups vegetable oil for frying
½ cup confectioners' sugar, or as needed

Steps:

  • Combine flour, egg yolks, sour cream, sugar, butter, rum, and salt in a large bowl; mix to form a dough.
  • Knead dough lightly and roll out on a floured surface. Cut into strips 4 inches long and 3/4 inches wide. Cut a slit in the middle of each strip. Twist and pull one end through the slit.
  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan. Test the temperature by dropping in a pastry twist; the oil is ready when it browns and float to the surface.
  • Fry pastry twists in batches until golden brown, about 1 minute per side. Drain on a plate lined with paper towels. Dust with confectioners' sugar.
