This is a popular Bulgarian dessert (Turkish really… or Balkan?) called “tulumba”. Fried dough, drenched in thick sweet syrup, what’s not to like. Except that it’s messy to make, and when you fry them they often explode, etc. These are mini-tulumbas – I used a churro maker to express the dough, and they are thinner then they should be (these guys are about the size of one’s thumb). So this is an intercultural culinary mashup.
