How to Make Funnel Cakes Using Bisquick

Ingredients:

- 1 cup Bisquick

- 1 cup milk

- 1 egg

- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

- Vegetable oil, for frying

- Powdered sugar, for serving

Instructions:

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the Bisquick, milk, egg, and vanilla extract. The batter should be the consistency of pancake batter.

2. Heat a few inches of vegetable oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat.

3. To make the funnel cakes, you can either use a funnel or a pastry bag fitted with a large round tip. If using a funnel, hold the funnel about 6 inches above the hot oil and slowly pour the batter into the oil. If using a pastry bag, snip off the tip and pipe the batter into the oil in a circular motion.

4. Fry the funnel cakes for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown.

5. Remove the funnel cakes from the oil and drain on paper towels.

6. Serve the funnel cakes immediately with powdered sugar.

Tips:

* To make sure the funnel cakes are cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center of one. If the toothpick comes out clean, the funnel cake is done.

* If you don't have a funnel or a pastry bag, you can use a plastic bag with the corner cut off.

* Funnel cakes are best served hot and fresh. If you have any leftovers, you can store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, place the funnel cakes in a toaster oven or in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit until heated through.
