Preheat oil or deep fryer to 350.

In saucepan mix together sugar, butter, water, salt and vanilla and stir until melted.

Add in your flour and stir vigorously until it forms a ball and starts steaming, that will help cook the liquid out.

Remove from heat and place into a bowl of a stand mixer to cool for about 5-10 minutes.

Once cooled add I your eggs one at a time mixing well after each addition.

Whisk together your cinnamon and sugar in a shallow bowl, set aside.

Place dough in a large piping bag fitted with an open star or French star tip (we used French star for this recipe).

Pipe about 6-8" long strips into hot oil and cook 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Remove from oil and drain on paper towels and then roll in your cinnamon sugar mixture.
