and 250 g of sugar 

A glass of white wine

salt to taste

and sprinkles should not be missing

Procedure

Pour the egg yolks, milk, lemon peel, 200 g of sugar and 100 g of sifted flour into a saucepan. We can start mixing everything for ten minutes, reaching a boil. The mixture obtained should be cooled and divided into two portions. Pour the chopped chocolate into a steel bowl, melting it in a bain-marie, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. The chocolate should be incorporated into one of the two containers with the cream, mixing everything well. Separately you have to mix half a kilo of flour with butter, two eggs, baking powder and fifty grams of sugar; Adding the white wine, then letting it rest for another half hour. The rested dough should be rolled out and cut into rounds. In each disc of dough you have to put a little cream, and chocolate, covering with another rod. Cook in a pan with vegetable oil. As soon as they have cooled, the knuckles can be decorated with sprinkles for wonderful Carnival Ciociari desserts!
