They’ll Never Know Beignet

I did this as a lark for my crash test dummies. I cheated in every way and took every short cut I knew. I used the Cafe’ Dumond beignet mix and the Nutella. Simple. 4 ingredients including cooking oil. They don’t know it’s a mix they figured out the Nutella but it took no time at all.

2 cups Cafe’ Dumond beignet mix
7 ounces water
8 ounce Nutella
2 quarts cooking oil

Mix water with beignet mix until combined.

Move to a floured board.

Kneed to 4 times folding and rolling.

Roll out to 1/8 inch.

Heat oil to 350.

Cut with pizza cutter into 2 1/2 inch squares.

Add 8 squares to oil when bottom gets golden brown. Flip and brown other side.

Remove to paper towel.

Let cool for 10 minutes.

With a pastry bag and tip fill beignet with Nutella.

Top with powdered sugar.

Serve.
