Ingredients

  • ¼ cup butter (55 g)
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup water (240 mL)
  • 1 cup flour (125 g)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 4 eggs
  • Cooking spray
  • Oil, for frying
  • Cinnamon sugar
  • Ice cream
  • Hot fudge (optional)
  • Caramel sauce (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan, melt butter with brown sugar, salt, and water over medium-high heat until it begins to boil.
  2. Reduce heat to medium-low and stir in flour until the dough forms a ball (about 1 minute).
  3. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes.
  4. Mix in vanilla and beat in eggs one at a time until smooth.
  5. Transfer dough to a piping bag fitted with a small star tip.
  6. Invert a muffin tin, spray generously with cooking spray, and pipe dough in spirals around the cups to form bowls.
  7. Freeze until solid, at least 3 hours or overnight.
  8. Heat oil to 350˚F (175˚C), release bowls from the tin and fry in batches for about 3 minutes, turning for even browning.
  9. Drain on paper towels and roll in cinnamon sugar.
  10. Fill each bowl with ice cream and desired toppings before serving.

Notes

  • To bake instead of frying, cook at 400°F for 25 minutes.
  • For added flavor, mix in espresso powder or extra cinnamon.
  • Un-fried, piped dough can be frozen and stored until ready to fry.
  • Store fried bowls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
  • Reheat in the oven at 350°F for 5 minutes to restore crispiness.
