- Why did the dough become soft?
- Either the oil wasn't hot enough and it absorbed too much, or you filled it too early.
- I don't have metal tubes, what should I do?
- You can make a 'taco' shape or a cone from crumpled aluminium foil, but metal tubes give the best result.

Instructions
For the dough, rub the butter into the flour, sugar, and salt. Add the egg and wine, then knead into a firm, elastic dough. Wrap in cling film and rest in the fridge for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the cream: mix the mascarpone with the icing sugar and cold coffee until smooth. Fill into a piping bag and refrigerate.
Roll out the dough very thinly (approx. 1-2 mm). Cut out 10 cm circles or squares.
Wrap each piece around a metal tube. Where the dough overlaps, brush with a little egg white or water and press firmly together.
Heat the oil to 175-180°C. Fry the tubes until golden brown (approx. 2-3 minutes). Remove onto kitchen paper, and only slide off the mould once cooled to lukewarm.
Just before serving, fill the tubes with the cream (piping from both ends), and dust the ends with cocoa powder.
