Faworki (Polish Chrusciki)

• 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 6 egg yolks
• 3 tablespoons sour cream
• 2 tablespoons white sugar
• 2 tablespoons butter, softened
• 1 tablespoon rum
• 1 pinch salt
• 2 cups vegetable oil for frying
• 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar, or as needed

1. Combine flour, egg yolks, sour cream, sugar, butter, rum, and salt in a large bowl; mix to form a dough.
2. Knead dough lightly and roll out on a floured surface. Cut into strips 4 inches long and 3/4 inches wide. Cut a slit in the middle of each strip. Twist and pull one end through the slit.
3. Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan. Test the temperature by dropping in a pastry twist; the oil is ready when it browns and float to the surface.
4. Fry pastry twists in batches until golden brown, about 1 minute per side. Drain on a plate lined with paper towels. Dust with confectioners' sugar.
