    OMG...Paula I love, love, love you and this is why...this was an awesome dessert, and i've never made them before...they were almost perfect, had to get the right thickness so that they wouldn't have an air pocket, but i got the hang of it and my lil 3 year old even helped with the rolling out of the dough...as long as you follow the directions it will be perfect...muah

    Delicious! This recipe is for a pretty big batch though, so next time I think I'll half it!

    I managed to lose my old beignet recipe. This one is better. I make half a recipe and leave the rest of the dough in the fridge for the next day. It works like a charm for several days.

    To a true southerner, what I'm about to suggest would probably be regarded as heresy. After letting them cool for a couple minutes I split mine in half and fill them with chocolate buttercream frosting instead of coating them with powdered sugar. We Minnesotans think outside the box, yah sure, ya' know.

    This recipe was easy and the result was delicious and elegant! I even took half of the dough and refrigerated it over night and then cut and cooked it the next day with good results. The result was just a bit heavier than the day before but still lovely and scrumptious!! Don't be intimidated to try this recipe, it truly is simple and worth it.

    My mom and I saw the episode where Paula made these. They are super easy to make and they are even more delicious!!! There are so many ways that you could change them just by what and or how you serve them. We just used powdered sugar. But you could make and kind of fruit puree or chocolate sauce. I will make them a hundred times again!!!!!!!
