A "secret" recipe that my aunt gave my mother in 1983. My aunt was the kind of person who was a good cook but would hide her recipes from other women. Am guessing at how many puffs you might get from this. Mom says this is really good and popular with her lady friends.

Steps:
- Put oil into large frying pan and heat to 370 degrees.
- In large bowl, beat eggs well, add both sugars, cream together thoroughly, add melted butter, milk, sherry, vanilla, and zest.
- Stir in zucchini into same bowl as above.
- In a medium size bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- Stir dry ingredients into wet ingredients.
- Take about a teaspoon of dough, gently drop it into hot oil, and fry for about 1 minute per side. (Mom does about 18 at a time, but it depends upon the surface area of your frying pan.).
- Drain on paper toweling.
- Make a thin glaze by combining powdered sugar with a tablespoon of orange juice and keep adding orange juice until you think it is right.

[email protected]These were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

[email protected]These were a bit more dense than I expected, but they were still tasty. I think I might try adding a bit of baking powder next time to make them lighter.
