- 1 1/2 cups Prairie Farms whole milk

- 1/2 tsp salt

- 1/2 cup Nutella, slightly warmed
- 6 strawberries, cleaned, destemmed, sliced

Instructions
- Heat oil to 375°F in a deep fryer or heavy pot.
- Combine flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a bowl.
- Beat milk, eggs, and vanilla in a separate bowl.
- Mix wet ingredients into dry ingredients until smooth.
- Transfer batter to a squeeze bottle with a wide tip.
- Squeeze batter into hot oil in a circular pattern to form a 4-inch cake.

Notes
Oil temperature is crucial – too hot and the outside burns before the inside cooks; too cool and the funnel cake absorbs too much oil. Always test with a small amount of batter first.
