  • The irons come in many different shapes and some irons are interchangeable and more shapes can be ordered.
  • Fill a deep fryer with several inches of peanut or possibly vegetable oil to 365F.
  • In a blender or possibly food processor, mix lowfat milk, melted butter, salt, sugar and egg till well blended.
  • Add in remaining ingredients and blend for 30 seconds (no longer).
  • Dip rosette iron into grease before each time you dip into batter; drain excess oil.
  • Dip iron into batter, then into warm oil.
  • After 20 seconds or possibly so of holding iron in warm oil, shake off the cookie into the warm oil; continue to fry till golden brown.
  • Remove to paper towels using a slotted spoon or possibly tongs.
  • Reheat iron for a minute in the warm oil before making next rosette.
  • When rosette cookies are cooled, sprinkle liberally with confectioner's sugar.
  • Makes about 40, depending on the kind of iron used.
