Angel wings (Polish:Chruściki) are a traditional sweet crisp pastry made out of dough that has been shaped into thin twisted ribbons, deep-fried, and sprinkled with powdered sugar. They are traditionally eaten on Fat Thursday in Poland, ahead of Lent.

In the United States, Polish-American bakeries in many cities, including Buffalo, Philadelphia, and Milwaukee, make angel wings.

The Russian variation on the dish is referred to as khvorost (Russian:Хворост,lit.'twiglets').
