State Fair Fried Dough - Genie 

30-35 Pieces

2 cups vegetable oil
1 loaf (1 pound) frozen bread dough, thawed
1/2 cup granulated sugar

In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Meanwhile, separate the
loaf of dough by pulling it apart into 1-inch pieces. Test the oil for readiness
by carefully placing 1 piece of dough into the pan. You'll know the oil is ready
when the dough bubbles around the edges. Place the remaining pieces of dough
into the oil and fry a few at a time until golden brown on the bottom. Then turn
the dough over and brown on the other side. Remove from the skillet with a
slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Repeat until all the dough is fried.
Place the sugar in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Roll or shake the
fried dough in the sugar to coat completely. Serve hot.

Note: BE CAREFUL making this! The oil will be very hot.
