Theples - Holy Cross cookbook

Mix all. Add enough flour to make a soft dough that does not stick to the fingers

Keep oil on hands, knead mixture. Cut into 6 balls, cover for 1 hour

Prepare hot deep fat in pot at 365 degrees

Roll each ball individually until paper thin. Keep remainder of dough covered until ready to use to avoid drying

Cut rolled dough with pastry wheel into 4" x 6" pieces

Fry in hot deep fat. Using 2 forks, turn dough over once and quickly roll (like jelly roll) before it becomes crisp. Fry until lightly browned

Remove to drain on absorbent paper. Cool
