This week is was Tanna who choose the recipe and it's something I guess you can find with different names in every corner of the world. In Italy we eat them during Carnival along with other fried sweets. In every town they have a different name (and shape sometimes) in Roma they are called frappe and I can't tell you enough how well they were welcomed ! My husband kept saying:' This is the last one !'. Until they were gone.
The recipe is very simple (and luckily doesn't yield a big number of scherben or frappe !) , I didn't add all the liquid it called for and substituted it with sweet wine, and used my pasta rolling machine to make the dough extra thin.
I'd like to thank Tanna for this fun and delicious choice !!
Please visit her for the recipe and the blogroll for more versions (even sin-less oven ones !)

I skipped this one but seeing your picture makes me want to try it! Using a pasta machine on the dough was a great idea! :)
You added sweet wine - what a great idea! I agree that I'm glad it didn't make very many. We couldn't stop eating them wither.
Yay! I am so glad your husband loved these! I was kind of hoping they would be like zeppole, but then I loved them either way! Thank you for frying along with me this week!
I wasn't able to make this one... but yours look so good!!! Delicious!!!
ti avvantaggi?
brava che hai spiegato che sio usa il vino dolce.
posso capire andrea
Thank you Natalia for visiting while I was gone! I can always count on you!
Now, why not wish you a very happy new year over a cup of tea and a couple of those great little fried divinities! huh?
Brava!
The best thing about Carnevale is these frappe!
A Venezia li chiamiamo galani. Mia nonna li faceva buonissimi, io ho provato e non sono gli stessi, per cui mi tengo alle frittelle per carnevale.
Subbing with sweet wine sounds incredibly good!! Beautiful job.
Ecco, per fortuna sto mangiando solo insalatine, tra un po' di nuovo abbuffate, e di fritti...
Lovely.
Fantastically turned -u have perfected 'em here...and that was a great idea...
Oooh, the sweet wine idea sounds good. So these are called frappe in Italian - they are totally new to me!
Wow-your scherben really look great!
These look great! What a good idea to use sweet wine in them. Maybe next time I'll make frappe instead of Scherben!
Natalia, those look so good! What a great idea to use your pasta machine to roll them!
Creative to add the wine. There is another cookie that has red wine in it. Cresent shaped.
These look tasty.
Id love this for breakfast with my coffee right bout now!!
Love fried sweet, I think it is the most delicious treat ever!
I don't think I could have stopped either.
Fried dough sounds pretty tempting to me!
mmm...they look delicious! glad to hear they were a hit at home!
These were so addictive! Your adjustments sound really good, too.
I didn't participate in TWD this week, but you have inspired me to make the scherbens this weekend!!! I'll try using the sweet wine. YUM.
