Authentic Bohemian (Czech) family recipe pronounced as "Liss-tay".
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup egg white
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 2 teaspoons light whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
Instructions:
  • Combine the egg yolks, egg whites, salt, sugar, and cream until well mixed. Slowly incorporate the flour until the dough is firm enough to roll out.
  • Roll the dough out very thinly and cut it into triangles. For an elegant touch, cut a small slit in the middle of each triangle and twist one corner through the slit to give them a fancier appearance, just like grandma used to do.
  • Add oil to a pot until it covers the cookie. Heat the oil until a small piece of dough fries when placed in it. Deep fry each cookie in the hot oil until golden brown. Remove the cookie from the oil and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil. Sprinkle with confectioner's sugar.
