CHIN-CHIN
INGREDIENTS
6 cups flour
1½ teaspoons baking powder
1 cup of water
2 cups butter/margarine
3 eggs
1 cup of milk (or additional cup of water)
10 tablespoons of sugar
Mix all the ingredients together. Mix and/or knead the dough until it is smooth.
Place some baking powder on a cutting board (so mixture doesn’t stick to surface). Then place some dough on the cutting board and flatten it until it is about ½ inch thick (1¼ cm)
Cut the dough into little squares, each square about ½ inch by ½ inch (1¼ cm by 1¼ cm).
Place some oil in a pot, place on stove, adjust to medium heat. Allow the oil to heat up
Once the oil is hot, place a few handfuls of the cut pieces into the oil. (The oil may foam. Rotating the cut dough with a cooking spoon). Allow the chin-chin to deep fry until golden brown. Place the fried pieces on a paper towel to soak up the extra oil.
Serve as a snack or (Great for pot-luck)
