Carnival Funnel Cakes

In a blender, combine the eggs, vanilla and milk. Pulse a few times. Add the granulated sugar and pulse again a few times. Combine the flour, salt, and baking powder in a bowl. Add flour mix to egg/milk mixture in 1/2-cup increments, pulsing the blender a few times after each addition.

If you are like me and do not have a funnel, place batter in a Ziploc bag. Place the oil in a skillet or pan on medium high heat and let it heat up for about 5 minutes. Take a small spoonful of batter and dropped it into the oil. If the batter floats to the top, you are ready to go!

When the oil is hot, cut the tip of the bag and pour approximately 1/2 it into the hot oil while making a circular motion. Carefully, use tongs and wide spatula to turn the cake over when golden brown. Fry the second side 1 minute, remove and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with sifted confectioners’ sugar, and garnish with strawberries and whipped cream.
