POLISH ANGEL WINGS-CHRUSCIKI



Polish Angel Wings-Chrusciki image

This is a classic Polish cookie that my mom and Bushia used to make at Christmas time. I've found that this is a really hard dough to work with, but it is from the original Polish recipe translated into English. These are not really sweet cookies, but they get most of their sweetness from the powdered sugar on the outside.

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

1/2 prepared angel food ring cake, cut into 8 wedges (1 inch thick)
8 mini candy canes (or peppermint hard candies)
8 ounces dark chocolate (at least 70 percent cocoa)

Steps:

  • Heat broiler. Lay cake wedges on sides; cut each crosswise in half and place on a baking sheet. Broil cake until brown on top, 2 to 5 minutes. Pulse candy in a food processor. Microwave chocolate in a bowl, stirring every 15 seconds, until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Dip untoasted side of cake in chocolate; place on platter chocolate side up. Sprinkle candy pieces over chocolate.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ingredients: Use fresh, high-quality ingredients to ensure the best flavor and texture.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough, dense angel wings.
  • Let the batter rest: Allowing the batter to rest for at least 30 minutes before cooking helps to develop the flavor and create a more tender texture.
  • Cook the angel wings over medium heat: This will help to prevent them from burning and ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Cooking too many angel wings at once will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Flip the angel wings halfway through cooking: This will help to ensure that they cook evenly on both sides.
  • Serve the angel wings warm: They are best enjoyed fresh out of the pan.

Conclusion:

Angel wings are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a batch of angel wings that are sure to impress your friends and family.
