My sweetheart gave me a 9-speed Kitchenaid hand mixer for Christmas and I've been having a ball "playing" with it.
Had several egg yolks left that I wanted to use up so I (used my new mixer) made some fattigmand bakkels, which turned out soooooo yummy. I had a new fattigmand cutter that I got just before Thanksgiving and I've been chompin' at the bit wanting to try it. Awesome. Made the job of cutting the cookies so much easier. I had 3 dozen cut, looped and fried in no time flat.
Now I really, really think I need to make some rosettes. Haven't made them in years and the deep fryer is all torqued and ready to roll. And I hear my rosette irons calling me. Hmmm.......
It's not as if I haven't already made a bunch of cookies. Almost 20 different kinds for Christmas dinner, but you never know when a plague of cookie-eating locusts might descend.
