One of my fondest memories growing up was going to the amusement park every fall for Procter and Gamble day (my grandpa worked for p&g and got tickets). At the end of the night, my parents would buy an elephant ear (or two) to share and we'd walk out to the car and eat it while watching the fire works.
Every time I eat an elephant ear I go back to those 'good ol' days'.
1-1/2 cups flour
1/4 cup sugar
1-1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
2 large eggs
1 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 to 1 tsp cinnamon (optional)
Oil for frying
Powder Sugar
Mix together all of the dry ingredients. Mix together all the wet ingredients, now mix the dry into the wet. Heat oil (enough oil so that the batter will float ) to 375 (if it's to cool the cakes will absorb lots of oil, to hot and they will brown of the outside but be doughy inside) in a sauce pan. Take a funnel (or a large spoon) and drizzle the batter into the hot oil. Cook till the down side is golden/dark brown then flip cook until that side is done. Place on cookie wrack (to help oil drip off) cool for a few moments then sprinkle with powder sugar and enjoy!!
