Servings: persons

1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
1 cup warm 2% milk (110u00b0 to 115u00b0)
1-1/4 cups fresh or frozen corn, thawed
1/4 cup sugar
2 eggs
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4-1/2 to 5 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups confectioners' sugar
6 cooked bacon strips
Oil for deep-fat frying

1
In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm milk. Add the corn, sugar, eggs, butter, salt, vanilla and 4-1/2 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough (dough will be sticky).
2
Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
3
Meanwhile, in a food processor, combine confectioners' sugar and bacon. Process until combined; set aside.
4
Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; roll into a 16-in. x 12-in. rectangle. Cut into 2-in. squares.
5
In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375u00b0. Fry squares, a few at a time, until golden brown, about 1-1/2 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels. Dust with bacon-sugar mixture. Serve warm.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
