Yield Makes about 18 fritters, serving 6 people

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup club soda
1/4 cup vegetable oil, plus 6 to 8 cups for frying
1 large egg, lightly beaten
2 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped*
1/2 cup whole hazelnuts, toasted lightly and skinned (about 4 ounces)
Accompaniments: Chile or cayenne powder, confectioners' sugar, ground cinnamon, and/or unsweetened cocoa powder
*If you keep kosher and are serving these fritters with a meat meal, be sure to use kosher dark chocolate, which contains no milk solids

Steps:

These fritters were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try making them again with less sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of chocolate, but I loved these fritters! The hazelnut flavor was really prominent and the fritters were perfectly cooked. I'll definitely be making these again.

These fritters were a bit too dense for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try making them again with a different flour next time.

These fritters were a disaster! They were too greasy and the chocolate hazelnut filling was too runny. I would not recommend this recipe.
