Steps:
- Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt into a large bowl. In a smaller bowl, whisk the egg with the granulated sugar until pale. Whisk the milk into the egg mixture, then gently fold into the flour mixture. It should be a bit thicker than pancake batter but thin enough to pour. Add up to 3 tablespoons milk to loosen the batter, if needed.
- Heat about 2 inches of canola oil in a large high-sided skillet or pot over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 375. Meanwhile, mix the confectioners' sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Hold a funnel in one hand with your finger plugging the hole at the bottom. Pour 1 cup batter into the funnel. Hold the funnel over the hot oil and remove your finger from the hole, letting the batter drop in a spiral pattern all over the surface of the oil. It will look like lots of individual pieces at first, but as you continue to add batter, the pieces will fuse together. Cook until the batter floats and the underside is golden brown, about 30 seconds. Flip with tongs and cook until golden brown on the other side, about 30 more seconds. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate and repeat to make 5 more funnel cakes. Dust with the cinnamon-sugar and serve with whipped cream and/or fruit sauce, if desired.

Steps:
- For the funnel cakes: Add enough oil to a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot to come 2 inches up the sides of the pot. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until it registers 360 degrees F on a deep-frying thermometer. Line a baking sheet with a metal cooling rack or a few layers of paper towels.
- Meanwhile, whisk together the milk, vanilla and eggs in a large measuring cup.
- Sift together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder and salt into a medium bowl using a mesh strainer (to break up any lumps in the brown sugar). Stir the egg mixture into the flour mixture just until smooth and combined.
- When the oil is up to temperature, use your finger to cover the hole in the bottom of a 1- to 2-cup funnel (with at least a 1/2-inch hole) and fill it to the top with about 3/4 cup of the batter. Position the funnel over the pot of hot oil and remove your finger to release the batter. Let the batter flow into the oil in thick squiggles, moving the funnel within a contained circular shape about 8 inches in diameter. Fry on the first side until golden brown, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, then use a spider or tongs to carefully flip to the second side and fry for an additional 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Remove to the wire rack or paper towels and let drain and cool slightly. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- For topping: Dust the funnel cakes generously with the confectioners' sugar, sprinkle with cinnamon and dollop with whipped cream before serving warm.

Steps:
- Make the batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the Irish cream, eggs, milk and vanilla. Sift the flour, confectioners' sugar, cocoa and baking powder right over the wet ingredients. Add the salt and whisk to combine. Transfer the batter to a large resealable kitchen bag or pastry bag. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.
- Make the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk the Irish cream and confectioners' sugar together until smooth. Set aside until ready to serve.
- Get ready: Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Pour the oil into a wide heavy-bottomed pot or pan. Heat the oil to 350 degrees F over medium heat. Fit a baking sheet with a wire rack. Have a spider, fish spatula, or slotted spoon on hand.
- Fry: Cut a small corner of the plastic bag or bottom of the pastry bag to create a small opening. Pour the batter from the bag into the hot oil, streaming about 5 overlapping rings of batter. Allow the batter to fry until it firms up and turns brown on the underside, 2 to 3 minutes. Use the spider to gently lift the cake out of the oil and flip it to the other side. Fry until golden brown, an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the funnel cake to the wire rack. Sprinkle with some granulated sugar. Use up the remaining batter to fry more funnel cakes, allowing the oil to return to 350 degrees F before each batch. You can hold the funnel cakes on the baking sheet in the oven while you make the remaining funnel cakes.
- Serve: Arrange the funnel cakes on plates, drizzling generously with the glaze.

Steps:
- Pour enough oil into a large saucepan to come halfway up the sides, it should be about 7cm deep. Heat until the oil reaches 170C-180C on a thermometer, or if you don't have one drop in a chunk of bread - the oil is hot enough when it browns in about 30 secs.
- Whilst the oil heats up, whisk together the flour, icing sugar, baking powder, milk, eggs and a good pinch of salt. Transfer the batter to a disposable piping bag and secure the end with a peg (you'll need another peg for the other end, once you've cut it open.)
- When the oil is hot, snip off the end of the piping bag to make an opening about 1cm wide - the batter will drizzle out so pinch it closed until you're ready. Hold the piping bag over the oil, release your finger and drizzle the batter in in a swirly circle shape. Pinch the opening to close it, then make another cake, you should fit about 3 in the pan it one time, depending on the width of your pan. Secure the piping bag with another peg whilst the cakes cook, they'll need about 1 min on each side, or until they're golden brown and crisp. Drain on kitchen paper and dust generously with icing sugar, best eaten straight away.
