Can't you get frozen ones from the grocery store or something. I'm positive I had a friend who did this before.

How about your kitchen?

Ingredients:
2/3 cup of milk
1 egg
2 tbsp. of sugar
1 1/4 cup of self-flour
1/4 tsp. of salt
1 tsp. of baking powder
Vegetable oil (Crisco)

Larger batch:
1 1/3 cups of whole milk
2 eggs
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 1/2 cups of self rising flour
Vegetable oil (Crisco)

Need:
a. Large skillet [prefer cast iron]
b. Large mixing bowl
c. Large funnel, ~3/8" hole works good

Directions:
1. Beat the milk and egg together. Mix all other ingredients, and then slowly add to the egg mixture, beating until smooth and creamy.

2. Using a funnel, drop the batter into hot oil [~375'F], working from the center on outwards, moving rotating motion. Add more oil as make more cakes - need to keep ~1/4" of oil, at minimum... but not too deep either.

3. Remove from the oil when golden brown and crispy - might want to flip after ~1 minute, same time on each side. Careful - its hot!

4. Place on paper towels.

5. Sprinkle with powdered sugar [and/or chopped fruit, whipped cream, etc.]

6. Contact ShadowCaver to have him help inspect.

7. Serve, and smile...

you can get a funnel cake at Eckert's Farm (orchard) in Grafton, IL. It is a beautiful drive up the Great River Road....you can get fresh picked, or pick your own apples and pumpkins. Make the day of it.....it is a good time

I know this is coming a bit late, but the Locker Room in Florissant and IHOP. I prefer the ones at the Locker Room to IHOP, by the way. It is right by the port office on North Lindberg at Thunderbird/Paddock.
