Instructions

Preheat deep fryer to 350 degrees F.

In a small bowl, combine 2 teaspoons cinnamon and 2 tablespoons sugar, set aside.

In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, remaining cinnamon, remaining sugar, and the salt. In a separate bowl, combine milk and egg. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients, adjusting the amount of milk to make a thick batter. Refrigerate for 1 hour.

Drop heaping tablespoons of fritter batter into hot oil, frying 5 to 6 at a time. Stir occasionally for even browning. Fry fritters 2 to 3 minutes, or until golden brown on all sides. Remove fritters from fryer and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

Dust with cinnamon sugar. Serve with Mexican Chocolate Fondue.
