Preparation
Step 1
Take one cup of water, set the other 1/4 cup aside. Mix 1 cup water with full amount of regular sugar, salt, and butter. In a small sauce pan, bring to a boil.
Step 2
Remove from heat and add flour. Mix until a dough ball forms. Set aside for a moment.
Step 3
Heat oil in a frying pan or large pot. You should have enough oil to cover the desired thickness of the funnel cake.
Step 4
While that's heating, add eggs and remain 1/4 cup water to the dough. Mix well. Transfer to a ziploc bag and cut very small corner off.
Step 5
Squeeze dough out into the hot oil, aim for circular patterns and make sure all dough connects. You'll need to do this fast for best results.
Step 6
Cook until the edges are golden brown, flip, and cook the other side until golden brown.
You can add a bit more water if needed if it's difficult to squeeze out of the ziploc bag, you can also add a couple tablespoons of milk for more flavor.
