You don't need to be a good pastry baker to make chocolate beignet treats. Using ordinary ingredients from your kitchen, this beignet recipe from Big Oven is surely a big treat for everyone.
You just need:
- Canned refrigerated biscuits
- Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- peanut oil
- confectioner's sugar
Directions:
Remove regrigerated biscuits from their can. Stretch each biscuit to make a circle of dough. Put a few chocolate chips on the dough. Fold the dough in half, enclosing the chocolate chips. Use your fingers to pinch the edges together, so that you have a crescent of dough that completely encloses the chocolate chips. Make sure there are not holes in the dough or gaps in the edges. Meanwhile, heat about 1 inch of peanut oil in a heavy pot to 350 degrees. When the oil is hot enough, carefully place a chocolate-filled crescent into the hot oil. The dough of the crescent should sizzle. The beignet will cook very quickly. When it is brown on the bottom, let it roll over in the oil to brown the other side. When brown on both sides, remove from oil, and place on paper toweling to drain. Quickly roll the beignet in a container of confectioner's sugar to coat all over. Place them in a pretty serving plate.
Your beignet is ready to eat!
