Coly loves the movie, Princess and the Frog. We have watched 5 times in the past 2 days. I know that is excessive, but I am swamped at work and I need the time to get some work done. In the show they talk about Beignets (Binaes), they talk about how good they are and they look interesting to me. So, wanting to know what exactly they were I went on a hunt. Once, I got the spelling down it was easy to find a recipe. I thought that I would give these a try, they are a lot like a scone, but sweeter and they make a ton. Colin enjoyed his Princess and the Frog cakes and I liked them too. I thought other moms might like to try a piece of Princess and the Frog with there kiddos, so here is the recipe (I used whole wheat flour and thought they were good, so if you want to make it a little healthier, give it a try.)
