Directions:
- Drop 1/2 cup of butter and a good pinch of salt into a skillet containing 1 cup of hot water.
- Bring to a boil and add 1 cup of sifted flour.
- Stir and cook thoroughly until it comes together and pulls away from the skillet.
- Turn off heat and add 4 eggs.
- You must beat after each egg you put in.
- Now the dough is ready to drop into deep fat, which should have been raised to 375 degrees.
- As the beignets brown, they will turn over by themselves.
- Have some heavy brown paper laid out and dip them out and onto the paper as they are ready.
- Drain well and immediately sprinkle with powdered sugar.
- They must be served right away, usually with a castor of sugar on the table so that more can be added as your guests turn them over.
