UKRAINIAN VERHUNY OR KHRUSTY (KHRUSTYKY)
5 large egg yolks
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1 Tablespoon brandy
Oil, for deep frying
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting
In a mixing bowl, beat the egg yolks and sugar until lemon colored. Add the butter, flour, zest, and brandy and mix to make a soft dough. Cover and chill 2 hours or overnight.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and roll out until very thin, 1/8 to 1/16 inch thick. With a pastry wheel or a sharp knife, cut 1x4-inch strips. Cut a 1-inch slit lengthwise in the exact middle of each dough strip. Pull the 2 ends of each strip through the slit to form a bow.
Heat the oil to 370 degrees F and fry the cookies a few at a time, lowering them into the oil with a slotted spoon, until they are pale golden brown, about 1 minute. Remove with the spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined wire rack. Dust with confectioners' sugar.
