Strawberry Fritters with Chocolate Sauce

This is a very creative take on beignets, a classic French dessert recipe. In this recipe, fresh strawberries are coated with batter and fried, beignet-style. These will make your mouth water, they are so good. You will love the combination of airy, crisp pastry, with lightly cooked fresh strawberries, and rich chocolate sauce.
