Christina's Notes
-
- Double This Recipe: Increase the ingredients proportionately and split into two batches for cooking.
- Bottle: For best control use a squeeze bottle to easily make your pattern.
- Cooling Tip: Use a wire rack or baking sheet to help them cool faster. Do not apply powdered sugar until the cake has cooled or it will melt.
- Dairy Free: Feel free to add your favorite milk alternative, such as a nut based milk or rice milk.
- Food Coloring: Brighten you cakes up with a little food coloring for fun.
- Favorite Toppings: Funnel cakes are best enjoyed with ice cream, hot fudge, whipped cream, fruit, powdered sugar or cinnamon sugar.
