Here is the traditional Ukrainian Khrusty which sounds like your angel wings:
KHRUSTY
2 eggs 3 egg yolks 2 tablespoons sugar l tablespoon cream 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 Tablespoon rum or brandy (can be flavoring of any kind really) 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons sifted flour Confectioners' (icing sugar)
Beat the eggs and the egg yolks together until very light. Beat in the sugar, cream, salt, and rum or brandy. Stir in the flour. This dough should be soft. Knead on a floured board until smooth. Cover and let it stand for 10 minutes. Roll very thin, about 1/8 inch or thinner. Use a small amount of dough at a time and keep the rest covered because it has a tendency to dry readily. Cut the rolled dough into long strips about l 1/4 inches in width. A pastry cutter with a scalloped edge is excellent for this purpose (but not necessary) Then cut the strips into 2 1/2 - 3 inch lengths crosswise or diagonally. Slit each piece in the centre and pull one end through it to form a loose loop. Cover the shaped dough. Fry a few at a time, in deep fat (375F) (I use an electric fry pan filled with oil to within an inch from the top, if you don't have a deep fryer) until delicately browned. Drain on absorbent paper. Sprinkle with icing sugar and ENJOY!!!!!!!THESE ARE SOOOOO GOOOD!!!!!!!!!!
