This year my mom chose to add Rosettes to our cookie baking day, at first I was a little disappointed because it’s a cookie “I don’t like” But I tried one again to be sure I don’t like it… and I love them!
These little treats are pretty simple to make once you get a hang of the rosette iron. Sprinkle with a little powdered sugar and you have heaven! I am also submitting these to Joelen’s Holiday Cookie Swap Adventure.
Rosettes (From: My Mom)
- 2 eggs
- 1 T. sugar
- 1/4 t. salt
- 1 c. all-purpose flour, sifted
- 1 c. milk
- 1 t. vanilla
Combine eggs, sugar, and salt; beat well.Add remaining ingredients; beat until smooth. Heat rosette iron in deep, hot oil (350 to 375 F) for two minutes. Drain excess oil from iron; dip in batter to 1/4 inch from top of iron, then immediately into hot oil. Fry rosette until golden, 10 to 30 seconds. Lift out; tip upside down to drain. With fork, push rosette off iron onto rack placed over paper towels. Reheat iron 1 minute; make next rosette. If you have two rosette irons, reheat one while using the other. Stir batter from time to time as you will get some oil in it. Sprinkle rosettes with confectioner’s sugar.

I have never heard of these before! They look delicious though!
Beautiful job and now you’ve got me wanting a rosette iron!
Thanks for participating in my Holiday Cookies Blogging Adventure!
These are so cute! They look really tasty too. The powdered sugar sprinkled on top gives them that fun festive touch! I’d like to include your mom’s recipe on our blog, please let me know if you’re interested

My Mom used to make these for me to bring as my ‘birthday treat’ to school because I loved them so! I remember all the kids looking forward to my birthday cause they knew I would bring rosettes.
Thankyou! I’ve been looking for this recipe for years.
Carrie!! How cool is this. My company now manufactures these rosette irons. Mostly for bakery or restaurant production, but we do have one that would fit in your pan. Totally thought of you ‘ol neighbor – from the Bristol =) Anyway, if you’re interested, here’s the link: http://www.horizonequipment.com/shop/product_info.php?cPath=65&products_id=715
