Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- In a medium bowl , whisk together the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Sift together the flour, granulated sugar, and salt.
- Whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until well combined. The batter should have the consistency of heavy cream. Refrigerate, covered, for two hours so the batter can fully hydrate. Also, this will assure crispier cookies.
- If using a double-prong iron, use a medium, heavy-duty deep skillet, preferably straight sided, or other medium deep heavy-duty pot. If using a single-prong iron, use a small heavy-duty deep skillet, preferably straight sided, or other small deep heavy-duty pot. Heat 2- to 2 1/2-inches of oil on medium-high heat until it reaches 360 F to 365 F.
- Pour the batter into a shallow 9-inch cake pan or pie plate. This will make it easier to dip the rosette iron. Submerge the rosette iron into the hot oil to heat for 15 seconds.
- Blot the iron molds on paper towels to remove excess oil.
- Carefully dip the heated rosette iron into the batter so that the batter covers the bottom and comes halfway up the sides of the iron, but does not cover the top.
- Submerge the batter-coated iron completely in the oil (the oil will bubble), being sure not to touch the bottom of the pot. Within 30 to 45 seconds, you will be able to remove the rosette from the iron using a metal or wooden or chopstick.
- Continue to fry until the rosette is golden brown and crisp, about 30 seconds more. Flip the rosette over, if necessary, to allow the other side to become lightly brown.
- Remove from pan with your chopstick and allow to drain and cool, inverted with the hollow side down on paper towels. Repeat the process until all the rosettes are fried, being sure the oil is at the proper temperature, and that the irons are heated in the oil and blotted on paper towels each time before dipping into the batter.
- Sift the confectioners' sugar and the cinnamon together. After the rosettes have cooled, sprinkle with the cinnamon-sugar mixture and serve.

Steps:
- Pour milk into a small bowl and add the seeds scraped from the vanilla bean. Whisk to combine. In a bowl, combine the sugar, salt, cardamom and flour. Add the eggs, alternating with the milk. Whisk until smooth and thick. Let the batter stand for at least 30 minutes or refrigerate overnight.
- Heat the oil in a 4-quart saucepan over medium high heat until a deep frying thermometer registers 375 degrees F.
- Attach the rosette iron to its handle. Carefully dip the iron into the oil for 2 to 3 minutes. Blot with paper towel. Always reheat the rosette iron before dipping into the batter.
- Dip the hot iron into the batter up to the top edge. Do not allow the batter to coat the top of the iron. Submerge the iron in the hot oil and cook the rosette until lightly browned. Remove from the oil and gently remove the rosette from the iron, using a fork if necessary. If rosette pops out of the iron and falls into the oil, use tongs to retrieve it.

PASTA ROSETTES
This is a savory pasta dish, so the addition of apricot preserves may seem strange. However, many cuisines combine salty and sweet flavors and are delicious. Though oven-ready lasagna sheets are called for, they still need a brief boil to make them flexible enough to roll.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Cook the lasagna sheets until al dente, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove and lay on a lightly oiled surface.
- Divide the ricotta among the pasta sheets. Sprinkle each with a touch of salt and pepper. Layer the preserves, prosciutto and basil over the ricotta. Sprinkle a tablespoon of mozzarella over each. Roll the pasta, starting with the shorter end. Slice each roll into thirds and place in a shallow baking dish, low-sided oval casserole or small skillet.
- Whisk together the cream, pecorino and garlic. Drizzle the mixture over the pasta and top with the remaining 1 cup mozzarella. Bake until bubbling and golden, 14 to 16 minutes.
- Drizzle over the balsamic glaze and serve.

- Stir into first mixture until batter is smooth and about the consistency of heavy cream.
- Add flavoring.
- Heat fat or oil to 370°F in a deep kettle.
- If you do not have a thermometer, put a small piece of bread into fat and count to sixty.
- Bread should brown.
- Dip your iron into hot fat to heat it and drain excess fat on absorbent paper.
- Dip heated iron into batter to about 3/4 its height.
- If iron is properly heated and drained the batter will coat the iron.
- If batter does not adhere the iron is too cool or greasy.
- Plunge batter-coated iron quickly into the hot fat and cook from two to three minutes or until active bubbling ceases.
- Invert iron over fat to drain fat off, then remove rosette from iron onto absorbent paper, inverting rosette to drain completely.
- Your rosette should be crisp as soon as it is slightly cool.
- If it is not, your fat may be too cool.
- If rosette does not drop off form easily, rap the form sharply with a knife handle to jar it loose.
- While still warm, sprinkle with confectioners sugar.
- Crevices may also be filled with raspberry jam (or your favorite) prior to coating with the sugar.

Steps:
- Whisk together eggs, granulated sugar, milk, and vanilla in a large bowl, then add flour and salt, whisking, until just combined (do not overmix, or cookies will blister).
- Heat oil in a 3- to 4-quart heavy saucepan with rosette iron in it until thermometer registers 370 to 375°F. Carefully lift out iron, letting oil drip off into pan. Dip all but top edge of iron into batter 3 seconds, then submerge iron in oil and fry (batter adhering to iron) until golden, 35 to 40 seconds (do not let go of iron; cookie will shatter if it hits bottom of saucepan). Lift out iron, letting oil drip off, and, working over paper towels, carefully pry off rosette with a fork. Let rosette drain, hollow side down, on paper towels, then make more rosettes in same manner, heating iron in oil 10 seconds before dipping it into batter each time.
- Dust rosettes with confectioners sugar before serving.
- Available at some specialty bakeware shops and Sweet Celebrations (800-328-6722).
Tips:
- Choose the right equipment. You will need a rosette iron, a deep fryer or large saucepan, a slotted spoon, and a paper towel-lined plate.
- Use the right oil. Use a high-heat oil such as vegetable oil or canola oil for frying.
- Heat the oil to the right temperature. The oil should be between 350°F and 375°F.
- Don't overcrowd the fryer. Fry the rosettes in batches so that they have enough room to cook evenly.
- Don't overcook the rosettes. They should be cooked until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Drain the rosettes on paper towels. This will help to remove any excess oil.
- Dust the rosettes with powdered sugar. This is a traditional way to serve rosettes.
- Enjoy the rosettes! They are best served warm and fresh.
