1 1/2 cups unsifted all purpose flour
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup oil
1 1/2 teaspoons grated lemon peels
3 eggs
oil for frying

Combine water, salt, and cornmeal in a heavy saucepan mix until smooth. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is very stiff, thick, and pulls away from sides of pan. (This takes 6 to 9 minutes.)

Remove from heat. Add cheese stir until melted. Pat mixture evenly into ungreased 13 x 9 x 2-inch utility dish. Let stand uncovered 30 minutes at room temperature. Do not chill dough.

Cut into 3 lengthwise sections and 18 crosswise strips.

Heat Crisco to 365°F in a deep fryer. Add sticks to hot Crisco, one at a time, frying 3 sticks at a time for 3 minutes or until golden brown. (If sticks run together, cut apart after frying.) Drain on paper towels. Serve warm.
