01 - 2 cups all-purpose flour
02 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
03 - 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
04 - 4 large egg yolks
05 - 1/2 cup sour cream
06 - 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
07 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
08 - Vegetable oil, for frying
09 - 1 cup powdered sugar, for dusting
→ Candy & Sweets
10 - 1 cup pastel Jordan almonds
11 - 1 cup white chocolate-covered pretzels
12 - 1 cup pink and white marshmallows
13 - 1/2 cup gummy candies (butterflies, hearts, or flowers)
14 - 1/2 cup meringue kisses
→ Fruit
15 - 1 cup fresh raspberries
16 - 1 cup strawberries, halved
17 - 1 cup seedless grapes

# Steps to Follow:
01 - Whisk together flour, salt, and sugar in a large bowl. Incorporate egg yolks, sour cream, melted butter, and vanilla extract, mixing until a soft dough forms. Knead on a floured surface for 5 minutes until smooth. Cover and let rest for 20 minutes.
02 - Roll dough very thin (approximately 1/8 inch). Cut into strips measuring 1 by 4 inches. Make a 1-inch slit in the center of each strip and pull one end through the slit to form a twisted shape.
03 - Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep pan to 350°F. Fry angel wings in batches for about 1 minute per side until golden and crisp. Drain on paper towels and dust generously with powdered sugar.
04 - Arrange cooled angel wings as the centerpiece on a large wooden board or platter. Cluster candies, fruits, and meringue kisses attractively around the wings. Place lemon curd and vanilla yogurt in small bowls nestled among the sweets for dipping. Optionally, adorn with edible flowers or gold leaf.
05 - Present immediately and enjoy with guests.
