Ingredients

Original recipe makes 10 servings
  •  2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
  •  1 1/2 cups warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
  •  1/2 cup white sugar
  •  1 teaspoon salt
  •  2 eggs
  •  1 cup evaporated milk
  •  7 cups all-purpose flour
  •  1/4 cup shortening
  •  1 quart vegetable oil for frying
  •  1/4 cup confectioners' sugar


Directions
  1. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add sugar, salt, eggs, evaporated milk, and blend well. Mix in 4 cups of the flour and beat until smooth. Add the shortening, and then the remaining 3 cups of flour. Cover and chill for up to 24 hours.
  2. Roll out dough 1/8 inch thick. Cut into 2 1/2 inch squares. Fry in 360 degree F (180 degrees C) hot oil. If beignets do not pop up, oil is not hot enough. Drain onto paper towels.
