Print Morning Kisses | Just A Pinch Recipe Club: "INGREDIENTS
- 1 c ricotta cheese
- 2 eggs

- 1/2 c flour
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg
- 2-3 Tbsp sugar
- 1 Tbsp orange zest
- 1 tsp orange extract
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- safflower oil
- 2 Tbsp powdered sugar
1. In a medium bowl, combine ricotta and eggs, mix until smooth. Add flour, baking powder, salt, nutmeg, sugar, orange zest, orange extract and vanilla. Combine until smooth.
2. Fill a large, shallow skillet with approximately 3/4 inch of safflower oil.
3. Place over medium-high heat. (You will know when the oil is hot enough when a bit of batter sizzles when dropped in.)
4. Drop small rounded teaspoons of batter into the hot oil, 8 to 10 at a time.
5. The batter will puff and undersides will turn golden brown, after about 1 to 2 minutes, flip the "kisses" over and cook for 1 to 2 more minutes until golden brown.
6. Place cooked " kisses" on a tray lined with paper towels. Continue making them until all the batter is gone.
7. Place these delicate little puffs on a serving plate and sprinkle liberally with powdered sugar. Serve immediately.
