| 1. Mix all dry ingredients together in a large bowl. | 2. Add all liquid ingredients (Except honey) to dry to form a dough. | 3. Knead dough well to incorporate all ingredients. | 4. For balls roll dough out in 1/4 inch round strips like pencils. | 5. Cut the pieces at small intervals with an angle cut. | 6. How far apart you make the cut is your judgment call, as the smaller the spacing the smaller the balls and vice versa. | 7. Mom likes the look leaving them as is with the angle cut giving a unique shape to the balls as they fry. | 8. If you prefer perfectly rounded balls, you can roll the pieces in the palms of your hands like miniature meatballs before frying. | 9. For ribbons cut some of the dough in flat strips about 1/2 inch wide preferably using a crimped edge cutting wheel as it gives a fancy serrated edge to them. | 10. Form loops or bow shapes with the ribbons and deep fry balls and ribbons separately until golden brown (ribbons as they are flat will cook quicker than the balls). | 11. Drain on absorbent paper. | 12. Heat honey in a deep pot until it starts to thin out and become pourable. | 13. Remove from heat. | 14. Dip bows and ribbons in warm honey and set aside. | 15. Add balls to the honey and toss to coat. | 16. Transfer balls to holiday platter and top with the ribbons and bows. | 17. Or you can mound the balls to look like a Christmas tree and decorate with bows on the sides. | 18. Sprinkle with multi colored sprinkles. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
