Preparation: 30 minutes

Cooking: 20 minutes

Total: 50 minutes

Serves:

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tbsp granulated sugar
2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
2 egg yolks
1/4 cup sour cream
1/4 cup milk
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Vegetable oil, for frying
Powdered sugar, for dusting

Instructions

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and sugar.
Add the melted butter, egg yolks, sour cream, milk, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix well until a dough forms.
On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough until smooth. Let it rest for 10 minutes.
Roll out the dough to a thickness of about 1/8 inch. Use a pastry cutter or a sharp knife to cut the dough into thin strips, about 1 inch wide and 4 inches long. Make a small slit in the center of each strip and pull one end through it.
In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Fry the dough strips in small batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
Sprinkle the fried dough with powdered sugar while still warm.
Serve the Faworki (Polish Chrusciki) as a sweet treat and enjoy!
