It's Fat Thursday in Poland... meaning Polish people around the world are enjoying their pączki.
My mom made a batch this morning and after being a calorie counter for several years, I've finally decided to put her recipe into MFP to see the amount of calories. I was shocked at the low 219 calories, and that taking into account the jam filling and oil used for frying. That's less calories than the cookies I get at Tim Hortons!

With sugar glaze on top it's approx. 248 calories.
