How to Make Funnel Cake

Funnel cakes are quick and easy crunchy desserts. This deep-fried bread is the favorite street food at the local fair. Carnival-style funnel cakes are of the size of a paper plate in which it is served. Generously dusted with powdered sugar, these crispy and chewy sweet treats are hard to pass.
