AMISH WEDDING NOTHINGS OR KNEE PATCHES
This are light, airy little pastries. This recipe came from "The Essential Amish Cookbook, Everyday Recipes From Farm and Pantry" by Lovina Eichler. I got this from Amazon. BTW, my husband said they're much better when freshly cooked. Fortunately the recipe doesn't make a lot so they're not around long enough to get cold...

Steps:
- 1. Stir together cream, egg, salt and just enough flour to make an elastic dough. The first time I only needed 1-1/2 cups.
- 2. Divide dough into 8 balls for bigger pieces or more balls if you want smaller pieces. Roll out into very thin, flat circles. Cut slits across so it doesn't puff too much when fried.
- 3. After heating oil to 365 drop pieces 1 at a time and fry until golden then put out on paper towels to drain slightly.
- 4. While still very warm dust each side with powdered sugar. If not sweet enough you could use granulated sugar instead. This way is good with cinnamon in the sugar.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, beat eggs until light and pale yellow.
- Add in the vanilla, salt, and the cream.
- Blend.
- Add the flour and beat well and thoroughly.
- This dough will be very stiff.
- On a floured surface kneed for ten minutes.
- (if your mixer has a dough hook it can be done that way also.) Preheat oil to 375 degrees.
- Pinch off the size of a large marble, and roll out thinly as possible.
- Should be about 4 inches or so.
- Cover your knees with a tea towel, and stretch the dough over the knee in the sitting position and stretch dough very thin.
- Cook two at a time in the hot fat, until golden brown.
- Turning once, takes about two minutes on each side.
- The dough will blister and puff up like a pita bread.
- Lift out each and shake extra oil off well.
- Drain on paper towels.
- When all the stretching, and deep frying is done, and cookies are cooled, then combine the icing powder and cinnamon, sift over the cookie lightly, on the top of each.
- These are eaten the same day.
- They do not keep well.
