1 1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 cups all purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
oil for deep-fat frying

Preparation

In an electric skillet or cast iron pan, heat the oil to 375 degrees.
In a large bowl, combine the eggs, milk and brown sugar.
In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder and salt.
Fold into the egg mixture until smooth.
Cover the bottom of a funnel spout with your finger.
Ladle 1/2 cup batter into the funnel.
Holding the funnel several inches above the skillet, release your finger and move the funnel in a spiral motion until all the batter is released.

Drain on paper towels.
Repeat with the remaining batter.
Dust with confectionary sugar.
