Banana Fritters :)

I made Banana Fritters tonight! They turned out lovely, and are very easy to make. The recipe is from "Dessert Cooking Class Cookbook" by the editors of Consumer Guide. Deep frying them in oil was my favorite part. I love that sizzling sound! I had leftover batter, so I tried deep frying marshmallows...it didn't turn out too great but I tasted a fragment of one and it was yummy! :D
