      Title: Copycat Taco Bell Cinnamon Twists
 Categories: Five, Snacks, Spices
      Yield: 6 Servings

           Oil; for deep-fat frying
    1/2 c  Sugar
      2 tb Ground cinnamon
      4 oz Spiral duros (heaping 1 c)
      1 pn Salt

  Pour oil into a large pot, Dutch oven or deep fryer to a depth of 2
  to 3". Heat oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F/175°C
  on a digital thermometer.

  While the oil heats, stir sugar and cinnamon together in a small
  bowl; set aside. Line a cooling rack with paper towels.

  Using a slotted spoon, place a scoop of duros into the hot oil;
  once the duros float, cook 10 to 15 seconds or until duros are
  completely puffed and crisp. Use the slotted spoon to remove from
  the oil; transfer to the paper towel-lined rack. Repeat this step
  with the remaining duros, checking the oil temperature between
  batches to be sure it remains at 350°F.

  While still warm, transfer fried duros to a large bowl; sprinkle
  the cinnamon sugar mixture on top. Use a large spoon to toss the
  duros until completely coated.

  Serve the cinnamon twists immediately. To store them, transfer the
  cooled twists to a sealed container. Store them at room temperature
  for 3 to 4 days.
