Ingredients

• 1 store-bought angel food cake, cubed
• ¾ cup tequila
• 1 lime
• Oil for frying
• Powdered sugar
• Lime zest
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 3 tablespoons milk

Directions

• Fill a heavy stock pot with vegetable oil (about 1/3 full) and place it over medium-high heat.
• Cut angel food cake into large chunks. Place tequila and the juice from one lime in a shallow bowl. Quickly and lightly dip cake into the tequila (not too much, you dont want the cake piece to absorb too much alcohol). Carefully lower cake piece into the hot oil (be aware that the hot oil will spit because of the alcohol).
• Allow each cake piece to brown for about 1 minute per side. Remove cake immediately and allow each piece to drain on a baking sheet lined with a paper towel.
• Continue with each cake piece.
• Be sure to avoid crowding your pot; too much food at one time will cause your oil temperature to decrease. If the cake is sitting in the oil too long, it will soak up the oil as well leaving you will a soggy mess.
• Allow the tequila shots to cool slightly before dusting with powdered sugar; otherwise, the sugar will melt.
• Sprinkle fresh lime zest along with the powdered sugar.
• For the dipping sauce, whisk together the powdered sugar, lime juice, and milk; serve with fresh fried tequila shots.
• These are best when immediately consumed.
