Struffoli (Honey Balls)

This was a great recipe! My husband is Italian and we have our own family recipe we use during the holiday season, but we decided to try this one and it was terrific! Yes, it is time consuming, but so worth it. Best method for cooking up the balls is definitely the deep fryer; much faster. Enjoy!
