• Slowly beat in the confectioner's sugar and brandy.
• Change to the dough hook and slowly mix in the flour a 1/4 cup at a time until the dough forms and pulls away from the bowl.
• Using the dough hook, knead the dough for 3-5 minutes. It should be thick like bread dough.
• Keep the dough in the bowl covered with a damp towel to keep it from drying out.
• Snip off a baseball sized piece of dough. On a floured surface, roll to 1/8 inch thick at the most!
• Using a sharp knife cut the dough into 1 1/2 inch wide strips. Then cut the other way in a diagonal to make pieces of dough that are about 1 1/2 X 4 inches.

• To form the wing shape, take one pointy end and poke it through the slit. Very gently pull the end through the slit to form a bow shaped cookie.
• In a heavy pot or deep skillet, heat the fat of choice (I like lard) to 350°F Use a thermometer!
• Drop the cookies, 3 cookies at a time, into the fat. Drop 3 cookies at once not 1 at a time. The cookies will sink to the bottom at first then they will puff up and float a couple of seconds later. As soon as this happens use a couple of forks to turn them.
• Immediately after you turn them use a deep fry strainer to remove them from the fat to drain on brown paper bags.
• Dust the still hot cookies with confectioner's sugar and repeat, cooking 3 cookies at a time until finished.

BONNIE'S STRAWBERRY ANGEL COOKIES

• 2. Beat together the cake mix and the preserves. DO NOT ADD WATER! Using the low speed on the hand mixer, beat for one minute until evenly moistened. It looks dry, but it isn't. Beat one more minute, then add the chocolate mini chips and stir with a wooden spoon until evenly distributed. Drop by rounded measuring tablespoons onto the parchment paper, 2 inches apart. (I sprayed my measuring spoon with Pam; the dough is sticky) Press 4 mini chips into each cookie before baking.

• 4. Store between sheets of wax paper to keep from sticking together.
• 5. WHAT TO EXPECT: My first instinct was to brown the cookies. If you do that, they will no longer be pink and they get hard and tough. This is angel food, and it should be soft and pillowy. So don't exceed the baking time. The reason for the "don't use full sugar preserves" is that it makes the recipe overly sweet. Enjoy!
