My very Polish grandmother from Pennsylvania (off the boat with the first wave of imamgrints at Ellis Island–thank you, Bachi!), made Punchkis when I was a little girl. We had prunes in them mostly, maybe dusted with a little powdered sugar. They made these by the basketful full around Easter. The smell of dough frying in oil, and eating these warm, wonderful treats made Easter all worthwhile! My aunts and cousins continued to make these long after Bachi was gone. While this recipe is nowhere similar to what she made, it is a nice memory, nonetheless. I will have to dig up the recipe from one of my cousins to compare! Thanks for making this venture into Eastern European delights!We’re so glad that the blog brought back such good memories. Your description is so good I can almost smell them now! ~ MaryJane
