You can control the density of these beignets by how thin you roll them.  a 1/4 inch of dough will give you a dense think beignet that will stand up to dunking in coffee or hot chocolate, while a thinner dough will give you a light beignet with an air-filled pocket in the center.  Play around with this recipe and make them how you like them.
