Frittelle – a special treat for Carnevale

I love the way special goodies are made for events in Italy. Frittelle are made to celebrate Carnevale and I can report that they are very delicious.  Annalisa has been making them for a few days at Il Monaco and in the name of research I have been eating them.   What a pity Carnevale only comes around once a year.

They are a bit like donuts, only better. Annalisa made 3 types – plain, crema and chocolate filled. I like the plain ones the best. I have no idea how they are made, but I have a few food blogging friends who may know. Please feel free to put any findings in the comment section.
