  6. heaping tablespoons filling on one half of dough circle.
  7. Fold over and crimp to seal.
  8. Fry in skillet full of medium high oil, about 365 degrees.
  9. You'll need about an inch of oil depth, so as not to cook too
  10. quickly. Turn when golden.
  11. Place on paper towels to cool. Mix powdered sugar with
