AMISH FUNNEL CAKE
I found this recipe a few years ago, having a craving for a funnel cake I found about 10 that sounded good, and simple, but this one was the best tasting one that I found...and yes, of course it would be the last one that I tried out of the 10 or so that I found. Splenda works well in place of sugar also.

Steps:
- Beat the eggs, then add the milk and sugar.
- sift 2 cups of flour to baking powder and salt.
- add to the milk, sugar, and egg mixture.
- mix well, adding more flour to mixture until it becomes a smooth batter and not too thick.
- The funnel should have an opening of at least 1/2 inch and be able to hold around a cup of batter.
- put your finger over the bottom and add the cup of batter. remove your finger and allow the batter to pour into the center of the oil. Be careful, the oil may splash a little.
- gradually 'swirl' the batter outward in a circular motion or criss cross back and forth to make a cake about 7 to 8 inches around.
- Check it with a pair of tongs and turn it when the bottom becomes golden brown.
- it's usually pretty fragile and will probably try to break on you when flipping. when both sides are done -- remove and place and paper towel to drain oil.
- you can top with powdered sugar, syrup,etc --
- enjoy. It will make about 6 cakes.
- If you don't have a funnel, you can twist a paper plate into a 'funnel', it will probably be a little messy unless you can tape it up or something.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Beat together 1 cup sugar, cocoa powder, hot water, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract with an electric mixer on medium speed until the sugar dissolves, about 3 minutes. Pour this batter into the pie shells.
- Sift together the flour and baking powder; set aside. Cream together 1 cup sugar with the butter. Beat in the vanilla, then the eggs, one at a time. Slowly beat in half of the milk, then half of the flour until moistened. Mix in the remaining milk then flour. Carefully spoon this batter on top of the chocolate batter, making sure that the entire top of the cake is covered with no chocolate visible.
- Bake in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven, and allow to cool for at least 1 hour before serving.
