"Polish rozie karnawalowe or carnival rosettes get their name because these rose-shaped fried cakes were traditionally served on Fat Tuesday, also known as Mardi Gras or Carnival. The dough is identical to chrusciki dough, but instead of cutting it into strips, the dough is cut into circles and stacked to form a rose when fried. These are unlike traditional Norwegian rosettes made by dipping a hot iron into batter, but the flavor is very similar. Freeze leftover egg whites and save for leftover egg white recipes.
