Description

My Grandma Stickles made this for my dad and now I make them for my dad at Christmas time. The recipe came from a Mrs. Raurseyer (not sure if this was a neighbor when they lived in Red Wing, MN or when they moved to Southern California during WWII).

Ingredients

  • 4 whole Eggs, Well Beaten
  • 1 pound Flour (4 C. Sifted)
  • 6 Tablespoons Sour Cream
  • 1 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 1 teaspoon Salt

Preparation

Mix all together like bread dough. Keep in fridge for 2 or 3 hours. Roll Thin!, then stretch.

I use a dish towel over my knee and stretch as thin as possible. PAPER THIN!

Instead of making big ole elephant ear sizes, I cut into 5″-6″ pieces with a knife then fry in deep shortening (Crisco or other vegetable shortening).

These brown up fast, so watch over them. Take them out when golden.

Drain on paper towels.

Sprinkle with either sugar, cinnamon sugar, or powdered sugar.

These are best eaten within a day or two. So I’d keep the dough in the frig until you’re ready to eat them or give them away.
