Crostoli di carnevale (also called Chiacchiere or Frappe) are Italian fried cookies also known as Angel Wings in English due to their ribbon-like shape. Every part of Europe has a version of the Crostoli fried pastries with their own name. Sprinkled with powdered sugar, these crispy strips of deep fried sweetened dough are so light, it will be impossible to stop at just one! Usually enjoyed during Carnevale in the Veneto region of Italy just prior to Lent, crostoli can be made all year around. Enjoy! Just watch me!
