# Cooking Steps:

01 - In a large bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and sugar. Add egg yolks, sour cream, melted butter, and vanilla extract; mix until a soft dough forms.
02 - Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5 minutes until smooth. Cover and let it rest for 20 minutes.
03 - Roll the dough very thin (about 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 to create a twist.
04 - Heat vegetable oil to 350°F in a deep pan, with approximately 2 inches of oil. Fry the dough strips in batches until golden and crisp, about 1 minute per side. Drain on paper towels and dust generously with powdered sugar.
05 - Arrange cooled angel wings as the centerpiece on a large serving board. Cluster candies, fruits, and meringue kisses attractively around them. Place lemon curd and vanilla yogurt in small bowls among the sweets for dipping.
06 - Add decorative touches such as edible flowers or gold leaf if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy.
