Pignolata


Ingredients: 

2 cups of flour 
4 large eggs( room temperature) 
Vegetable oil for frying 
1 cup of toasted almonds 
(roast in oven for 6 to 8 minutes at 400 degrees) 
1 ½ cup of honey 
1/3 cup of sugar 
2 tablespoons of Italian cinnamon ground very fine 
Powder sugar 
1 large Hershey’s chocolate bar 


Directions: 

Put 2 cups of flour in mixer—using dough hook, or make by hand make a well and add 
2 beaten eggs—mix slowly adding the other 2 eggs—until a soft but not sticky dough 
ball forms 
Work a little by hand with more flour—take a small piece and roll into a long rope—cut 
into very small pieces 
Put on cookie sheet sprayed with Pam until all the dough has been cut 
Put oil in a 10 quart pan filling up about 8 inches—add about ¾ of the dough balls than 
turn your stove top on high 
The dough balls will start coming to the top—mix them constantly until they are golden 
brown—this will take at least 8 minutes—watch then so they don’t burn 
Take a slotted spoon and put them in a bowl 
If you are not going to mix them right away place the balls in a brown paper bag to 
release all the oil—I like to wait a couple of days before mixing 
To mix you are gong to bring the honey and sugar to a boil—remove from heat add the 
cinnamon and almonds 
Mix the dough balls into the honey coating until almost all the honey is absorbed 
Place the dough balls on small dishes—place your hands on ice and mold the balls so 
they stick 
When cooled at chopped chocolate and powder sugar 
I like to fry all my dough balls 1 day and mix the next.
