Easy Funnel Cakes

  4.4 – 88 reviews  

tasty enchiladas without meat. You can adjust the cheese and cream sauce proportions to make the dishes as light or as filling as you wish. I use between three and five kinds of mushrooms. Buttons, baby portobello, and different kinds of oysters.

I wish she would have put measurements but it turned out great very yummy !!
Patricia Brown
I only give this 3 stars because we’ve all had to edit it by adding more milk and more sugar. 1 full cup of milk 1/4 cup of sugar And I also added 1/4 tsp of vanilla extract for flavor. They came.out so perfect!

I always forget to take pictures but the kids and adults loved the home cooked county fair treat! Thanks for sharing

I increased milk to one cup and doubled the sugar. Topped with fresh strawberries and powdered sugar. Would definitely make it again with the changes.

Next time I’ll add a bit more milk so the batter flows more readily. Other than that, thumbs up!

Susan Schmidt
liked it
Anthony Warren
I always put vanilla in my batter. I found that this was way too bland and the vanilla really gives it the flavor of the fair, I think. Just a suggestion that works well for us!!
Jennifer Clark
Just a question, could you use a small fry daddy instead of the skillet to make these? I intend to make them with my grandkids – sound delicious! Thanks! Linda
Joseph Rich

Someone was reading my mind when this recipe was emailed to me. Added a little more milk than was in the recipe. All I was missing was the sound of the Carousel at the fair, Deeelish
