  3. Add the vanilla extract to the butter mixture and mix well.
  4. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, mixing until a dough forms.
  5. Roll the dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter.
  6. Heat the oil in a deep pan or a deep fryer to 350°F (175°C).
  7. Fry the dough balls in batches for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown.
  8. Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels.
  9. Roll the fried dough balls in powdered sugar until completely coated.
