Ingredients

Heat oil in a deep fryer to 325°F.

Mix all but two teaspoons of sugar with cinnamon on a large plate and set aside.

Bring milk, butter, salt, and remaining 2 teaspoons of sugar to boil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add flour all at once. Cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, until it forms a ball and pulls away from the sides of the pan (about 30 seconds).

Remove from heat and let cool for 3 minutes.

Beat in eggs, one at a time, stirring vigorously after each addition until smooth.

Spoon the dough into a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip. Holding the pastry bag a few inches above the hot oil, pipe out strips of dough, cutting off 4 inch lengths with a knife or scissors. Cook as many as will fit comfortably at once, turning as they brown, for about 5 minutes.

Drain on paper towels for 30 seconds before rolling in the cinnamon sugar mixture. Serve hot.
