Yes this is totally cheating, but totally yum! Another great recipe from my Cajun French friends!

Ingredients
- 1 (11 ounce) can refrigerated biscuits, I use flaky ones
- 2 cups oil
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
Directions
1
Heat oil in skillet over medium high heat.2
Remove biscuits from can and cut each in half and a 1 inch slit in the center to make a typical beignet shape.3
When oil is hot fry about 6 beignets at a time, turning often so they do not burn but turn a golden brown.4
Remove from oil and drain beignets on a paper towel.5
Place on serving plate and dust with powdered sugar.

I laughed when I saw this recipe. My dad would make these for us when we were growing up, he called them donuts, but coming from outside New Orleans it is a bit of an insult to call them beignets. For those who have never had a beignet, no these are nothing like them, but they are a very tasty treat that are a great fun thing to make the kids.

I liked these, but never having had a traditional beignet, I don't know if they were close or not. For me, they were not quite sweet enough with just a dusting of powdered sugar. But had a good taste and were very easy. Also, didn't know what beignets look like but the little slit didn't seem to stick there, they just turned into half-circles.
