Ingredients

  • 1 cup warm water
  • 1 packet active dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup hazelnut praline paste
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips
  • Powdered sugar for dusting
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Мethod of preparation

1. In a large bowl, combine warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let sit for about 5 minutes until frothy. 2. In another bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and melted butter. 3. Add the egg mixture to the yeast mixture and stir to combine. 4. Gradually add flour and salt, stirring until a dough forms. 5. Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. 6. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place for about 2 hours or until doubled in size. 7. Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out to about 1/4 inch thickness. 8. Cut the dough into small squares, about 2 inches each, and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. 9. Cover the squares with a cloth and let them rise for another 30 minutes. 10. Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). 11. Fry the beignet squares in batches, about 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. 12. Fill a piping bag fitted with a small round tip with hazelnut praline paste. Insert the tip into the side of each beignet and fill with the praline paste. 13. Melt the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth. 14. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the filled beignets. 15. Dust with powdered sugar before serving. Enjoy your delicious Hazelnut Praline Beignets while they're warm and fresh!
