INSTRUCTIONS
* See recipes for Roquefort Beignets with Apple Puree I (Puree) and Roquefort Beignets with Apple Puree II (Batters). These ingredients should be accomplished before completing this recipe. For Filling: ============ Blend the Roquefort cheese and egg yolk (mixture will by lumpy). To Assemble and Cook: ===================== Cut off any dry edges from the crepes, squaring them slightly. Place a rounded teaspoonful of cheese mixture in the center of the spotty side of a crepe, mounding it slightly. Fold the crepe into thirds horizontally (as you would a letter), then fold the sides in so that they overlap slightly, forming a neat package about 2 inches square. Place these packets folded side down on a tray lined with waxed paper; repeat with remaining crepes and filling. Cover the folded crepes with a damp cloth, then with plastic wrap, then with aluminum foil. Chill several hours or overnight. In a large skillet or saucepan, pour in 2 inches of vegetable oil and heat to 375 F (a small piece of bread dropped into oil sizzles steadily at this temperature.) Thin the fritter batter with water, if necessary, so that it flows from a spoon but is not watery. Use 2 forks to dip folded crepes into fritter batter; then lift them out, letting any excess batter drain off, and transfer to the hot oil ( do not crowd.) Fry until golden, turning once, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels and serve with Apple Puree. This recipe makes 12 beignets (three per serving.)

A Message from our Provider:
“We need to discover all over again that worship is natural to the Christian, as it was to the godly Israelites who wrote the psalms, and that the habit of celebrating the greatness and graciousness of God yields an endless flow of thankfulness, joy, and zeal. #J.I. Packer”
