Notes

Special equipment: a deep-frying thermometerCook’s NoteA regular plastic funnel with a small nozzle works well.

Step 1

In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, heat 2 inches of vegetable oil to 350ºF.

Step 2

Whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and kosher salt in a large bowl. Add the milk, butter, vanilla and egg and whisk until well combined.

Step 3

Make one funnel cake at a time: Pour ½ cup of the batter through a funnel (see Cook’s Note) into the hot oil while making swirling and overlapping motions. Allow to fry and brown for 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Step 4

Dust with confectioners’ sugar and transfer to a plate. Top with a scoop of rocky road, cherry and caramel ice cream, a drizzle of hot fudge, some whipped cream and sprinkles.
