Ausgezogene (Knieküchle) 1 1/4 sticks Unsalted Butter
4 Eggs
2 cups Milk
1/2 cup Sugar
Pinch of Salt
1 package Yeast
Enough Flour to make a firm dough
Oil for frying
Powdered Sugar
In a small bowl, combine the yeast and 1/2 cup of the milk (luke warm). Mix in 3 tablespoons flour and 1 teaspoon of the sugar. Allow this mixture to sit in a warm place for 1 hour.
Combine remaining dough ingredients then add in the yeast mixture. Mix until a smooth dough forms, then knead by hand. Allow dough to sit in a warm place until double in volume.
Knead the dough to eliminate the pockets of air. Divide dough into tablespoon size pieces. Press flat each piece of dough. Allow dough pieces to rise again for 1 hour.
Heat oil in a large pot or deep-frier.
Take each piece of dough and stretch it out again - large enough that it would be able to cover your knee. Fry each stretched-out piece of dough until golden brown on both sides. Remove from oil and allow to drip dry on paper towels. Dust with powdered sugar.
