2 eggs, beaten
2 tsp sugar
1 c milk
1 c flour
1/4 tsp salt

Heat oil to 375, must be deep enough to immerse iron.
Dip iron in hot oil (iron must be hot!), then batter, only to the depth of the mold (not top), then immerse in oil, cover completely. When foamy bubbling stops/ rosettes are golden, drain & place on cooling rack lined with paper towels, open side down.

If batter goes on top of mold, scrape off/ loosen with knife.
