It is a dessert and has found popularity worldwide. They are cookie-like pastries that are deep-fried and commonly have the edges dipped in frosting or sugar. To make a batch of your own, twist the rosette iron onto a threaded handle until secure, but do not over-tighten and heat in hot oil. The mold must be seasoned before its first use to ensure the easiest release. Dip the hot rosette iron into the batter and put it back in the hot oil until a crisp shell is created. Finish with a dusting of powdered sugar or sprinkle of cinnamon and sugar.
