These glazed crullers get all their flavor from the @elmhurst1925 Oat Nog, making them the coziest fried treat of the season. Use Oat Nog for the dough, the glaze, and the coffee you serve alongside!
1.) Bring the Oat Nog, water, butter, sugar, and salt to a boil. Lower heat, add the flour all at once, and stir vigorously until a paste-like dough forms.
2.) Transfer the dough to a stand mixer with the paddle attachment and beat for a few minutes to release steam. Beat in the eggs until smooth, then cover the surface with plastic wrap and chill for at least 1 hour.
3.) Heat oil to 350°F (180°C) in a heavy pot. Cut parchment into eighteen 3-inch squares. Pipe a ring of dough onto each square using a large star tip.
4.) Lower each cruller (star side down!) into the oil with its parchment; the paper will release after about a minute. Fry 2–3 minutes PER side until deep golden, then dip in glaze (just combine the ingredients until smooth) and cool on a rack. Makes 20-25 crullers.
