Kringlor (Twists)

Ingredients

• 0.5 lb butter at room temperature
• 1 large eggs 
• 1 large eggs separated
• 3 cups flour all-purpose
• 1 cup granulated sugar 
• 2 large hard-cooked egg yolks 
• 0.3 teaspoon salt 
• 60 servings soy-sesame dipping sauce 
• 0.3 cup coarse decorating sugar 

Equipment

• bowl
• frying pan
• baking sheet
• oven
• blender
• plastic wrap
• spatula

Directions

1. In a bowl, with a mixer on high speed, beat butter and granulated sugar until fluffy.
2. Add hard-cooked egg yolks, uncooked egg yolk, uncooked whole egg, and salt; beat on medium speed until blended. Stir in flour, then beat until well blended.
3. Shape dough into 1-inch balls; cover with plastic wrap. On a lightly floured board, roll each ball under your palm into a 6-inch-long rope. On a 12- by 15-inch baking sheet (you'll need 3 total), twist each rope into a figure eight and press ends lightly together; space twists about 1 inch apart. Beat remaining egg white to blend; lightly brush over twists.
4. Sprinkle with pearl sugar.
5. Bake in a 350 oven until twists are golden brown, about 20 minutes (16 to 18 minutes in a 325 convection oven). If using 1 oven, switch pan positions after 10 minutes. With a wide spatula, transfer twists to racks to cool.
6. Serve warm or cool.
