These look really good and easy to make. It's a very simple bread dough (essentially French bread) that is fried and coated with granulated sugar. I want to try this next weekend.

I surely miss shakoy. When our neighbor makes them in the afternoon, almost all the kids in the neighborhood gather together and wait for newly fried shakoy to buy. ๐
