Instructions: Beat eggs lightly; add granulated sugar, salt and extracts. Blend thoroughly.

Place flour on board; cut in butter. Add egg mixture. Knead until smooth ball is obtained. If dough is too soft, gradually add a little flour to make firm but not hard. Set aside for 30 minutes.

Cut dough into 4 sections. Roll on well-floured board until wafer-thin. Cut with pastry cutter into strips 6 inches long by 3/4 inch wide. Tie in individual bowknots. Fry bows about 3 minutes or until light brown in deep, hot peanut oil.

Drain on absorbent paper; cool, sprinkle with powdered sugar.
