Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 cup butter, cold and diced
• 1/4 cup whole milk
• 1 large egg
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Vegetable oil for frying
• Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)

Directions

1. 1

   In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, salt, and baking powder.

2. 2

   Add the cold, diced butter to the dry ingredients and use your fingers to rub it into the flour until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.

3. 3

   In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract.

4. 4

   Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and knead the dough until it comes together. You may need to add a little more flour if the dough is too sticky.

5. 5

   Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/4-inch thickness.

6. 6

   Use a knife or cookie cutter to cut the dough into desired shapes, such as squares or strips.

7. 7

   Heat vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium heat. Ensure the oil is hot but not smoking.

8. 8

   Carefully place the Chin Chin pieces into the hot oil and fry until they turn golden brown and crispy. Fry in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.

9. 9

   Remove the fried Chin Chin with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
