INSTRUCTIONS
Dissolve yeast in 2 tablespoons of the lukewarm milk. Add remaining
milk, sugar, egg and lukewarm melted butter. Sift flour and salt into
a warm bowl and gradually stir in mixed liquids. Beat until smooth and
continue beating for 1 minute. Cover with folded cloth and leave in a
warm place for 1-1/2 hours until batter doubles in bulk with bubbles
on the surface. Stir well then drop teaspoonfuls into deep, hot oil
(190øC or 375øF) ~ do 4 to 5 at a time. Turn puffs to brown evenly
and remove with a slotted spoon (each puff takes about a minute to
cook.) Drain on absorbent paper and pile on to a plate. Drizzle each
layer with warm honey and sprinkle with cinnamon. Serve hot. Source:
