Elephant Ears




In celebration of Horton Hears a Who our whole school made Baked Elephant Ears following this simple recipe:

Ingredients:
· Refrigerator biscuits - 1 roll
· 1 cup cooking oil
· 1/4 cup cinnamon sugar
· Paper lunch bag

Directions:
Place cinnamon sugar in paper lunch bag. Heat cooking oil in large frying pan. Test for hot enough: Drop of water will sizzle.
Separate dough into individual biscuits-"ear". Stretch each biscuit until they just about have holes in them. They do not have to be perfect. Gently drop each "ear" into the hot oil. As soon as one side becomes golden, flip them and let second side get golden. They burn quickly.
Place "ears" on paper towel to soak up excess oil. Shake "ears" in paper bag of cinnamon sugar. Serve warm with ice cream or just plain. Make lots, they will go quickly!
