How To Make italian struffoli

• Step 1
  beat together egg yolks, whites, and sugar, then beat in oil. vinegar, Rye (whiskey) and vanilla. Add flour, salt, and baking powder and mix in to a soft dough.

Roll into two balls; keep one wrapped in wax paper in refrigerator while working on the other.

• Step 3
  Heat several inches of oil in a large pan. When oil is hot, fry the balls until golden brown. *If you have a deep fryer, set it to 375 F and fry until golden brown* Drain well after frying on paper towels.
• Step 4
