Giving Back

Giving Back
My wife and I believe in giving back.  We volunteer at our little Italian church San Antonio.  Friday we helped make Italian Bow Tie cookies for our bake sale. This is a basic recipe, every Italian home has a version of this recipe.
6 eggs
6 tbsp of oil
3 tbsp of sugar
4 – 5 cups of flour
2 tbsp of vanilla
1/8 tsp salt
Oil for frying
Homemade Icing
Combine flour, sugar, salt, eggs, oil and vanilla.  Divide into small pieces of dough, using a hand crank  pasta machine roll very thin.  Cut the dough into 5 inch long by 1 ½ inch wide strips place a slit in the middle and pull one end thru to form a bow tie.  Deep fry until lightly brown in color.  When the cookies cool cover with icing.
