    I've made this 3-4 times already and forgot to write a review. My husband requested these once again this afternoon. They remind us of the funnel cake they sell at Magic Mountain. So good and easy to make.

    Oh my Gosh! They taste exactly like the fair. I'm the cook of my family and I'm the fourth child of 8, so this was fun to make because i love to cook and because everyone loved them. This was a fun recipie to make. Here's a tip: make sure the oil is hot but not too hot, or else they might brown very dark real fast. A way to tell if the oil is hot is to wet your figertips with water and splash the oil. If it boils immediatly, then the oilis hot, and if it takes more than 3-6 seconds, then you should let it heat a little longer. Good Luck and Enjoy! Also try Lois's Lucious Layered Fudge, Recipie #55153. Enjoy!

    These are Very good. Just like my mom used to make for me. One thing that she did that I find VERY helpful is to take an empty ketchup bottle, clean it out really well, and use that in place of a funnel. it is easier to use, less messy, and when you dont need any more batter, just snap the lid shut! VERY easy.
