Cheregie Little Bow Tie Doughnuts We Call Them Chickies Recipes

CHRUSCIKI WITH MRS. KOSTYRA

Steps:

• Put melted butter, eggs, egg yolks, granulated sugar, sour cream, salt, extracts, vinegar, and rum in the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium-high speed until mixture is pale, about 3 minutes. With mixer running, add zests. Reduce speed to low, and gradually add up to 3 cups flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until a fairly stiff dough forms.
• Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface, and knead, dusting with flour if it seems sticky, until dough becomes smooth, soft, and elastic, about 10 minutes. Halve dough, and wrap each piece in plastic wrap. Let dough rest at room temperature, 30 minutes.
• Working with 1 piece at a time, roll out dough on a lightly floured surface until very thin (about 1/16 inch thick). Using a straightedge as a guide, cut the dough into 5-by-1 1/4-inch strips. Trim ends on the diagonal.
• Lay dough strips vertically in front of you, and cut a 1 1/4-inch-long opening through the middle of each strip. Working with one strip at a time, push one end through the cut, then pull through to make a bow-tie shape. Transfer formed chrusciki to a large parchment-lined baking sheet, and cover with a clean, slightly damp kitchen towel. Repeat process with remaining dough.
• Heat shortening in a large (6-quart) pot over medium-high heat until it registers 375 degrees on a deep-fry thermometer.
• Working in small batches of about 7, fry chrusciki, turning once with a slotted spoon, until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Transfer fried chrusciki with slotted spoon to two paper-towel-lined baking sheets to drain. (Adjust heat between batches as necessary to keep oil at a steady temperature.)
• Just before serving, dust chrusciki with confectioners' sugar.

CHRUSCIKI BOW TIE COOKIES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, beat the egg yolks, egg, rum, vanilla and salt until blended. Gradually add confectioners' sugar; beat until smooth. Stir in flour until a stiff dough forms. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead seven times., Divide dough into three portions. Roll one portion into a 1/4-in.-thick rectangle, about 12 in. x 5-1/2 in. Cut in half lengthwise, then cut dough widthwise into 1-1/2-in.-wide strips. Cut a 3/4-in. lengthwise slit down the center of each strip; pull one of the ends through the slit, forming a bow. Repeat., In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375°. Fry cookies, a few at a time, for 1-2 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Dust with confectioners' sugar.

KRUSCHICKI

Steps:

• Heat oil in deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, beat together the egg yolks, sour cream, white sugar, vanilla and whiskey until smooth. Stir in flour until dough is stiff enough to knead. Turn out onto a floured surface and knead until smooth. Knead in additional flour if necessary. Divide dough into 3 or 4 pieces and roll each ball on floured surface. Cut into strips about 3 inches long then make a slit long ways down the middle. Pull one of the ends through like a bow.
• Place into hot oil and deep fry until golden brown. Let drain on paper towels and sprinkle with confectioners' sugar.

• When they are done and drained on paper towels, sprinkle with powdered (or confectioners) sugar.

DUNKIN DOUGHNUTS GLAZED BOWTIES

Steps:

• Doughnuts:.
• Heat the milk until it is warm but not hot, about 100°F In the bowl of a a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, combine milk with the yeast. Stir lightly, and let sit until the mixture is foamy, about 5 minutes.
• Beat the eggs, butter, sugar and salt into the yeast mixture. Add half of the flour (2 cups plus 2 tablespoons), and mix until combined. Mix in the rest of the flour until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Add remaining flour; 2 cups plus 2 tablespoons. If the dough is too wet, add more flour 2 tablespoons at a time. The dough will probably become too thick to beat; when it is, transfer it to a floured surface, and gently knead it until smooth. Grease a large bowl with a little oil. Transfer the dough to the bowl, and cover. Let rise at room temperature, in a warm place, until it doubles in size, about 1 hour.
• Lightly flour two rimless baking sheets. Turn the dough out onto a well-floured surface, and using a well floured rolling pin, roll dough into a 16'' x 12'' rectangle; it should be about 1/4-inch thick. Working quickly, and using a floured pizza wheel or pastry cutter, measure dough, then slice dough in half lengthwise. Measure dough, then slice dough into 2-inch sections crosswise. You will now have 12 long strips. Using a thin spatula to assist you, transfer cut dough to baking sheets, leaving about 4'' of space between each one. Using your floured pastry cutter, slice a slit lengthwise through each piece of dough leaving 1/2'' of uncut dough on both ends. Working with one piece of dough at a time, gently lift one end carefully separating the center. Twist the dough twice and place the end back down. Repeat with remaining dough.
• Let twists rise in a warm place until they've puffed, about 35 minutes. About 15 minutes before they are done rising, Attach a deep-frying thermometer to the side of a large heavy-bottomed pot or dutch oven; heat 2-inches of oil over medium-high, to 375°F.
• Prepare two cooling racks, topping them with paper towels and placing them over baking sheets. Using a metal spatula carefully add the doughnuts to the oil, a few at a time. When the bottoms are deep golden, about 1 to 2 minutes, use tongs to flip; cooking until they're golden on both sides.Transfer the doughnuts to the prepared racks, repeating with the rest of the dough, ensuring the oil remains at 375F while frying.
• Glaze:.
• In a small saucepan over low warm milk to a simmer. Pour warm milk into a medium heatproof bowl. Whisk in confectioners sugar, vanilla and salt until smooth and glossy. Place bowl over a pot of simmering water until thin and smooth, about 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from heat. Using your fingers, or tongs fully submerge each doughnut in the glaze. Place each glazed doughnut on a cooling rack placed over a baking sheet. Allow glaze to dry for at least 1 hour. Serve within a day.
