Ricotta Zeppole

Light, puffy Italian doughnuts made from a quick batter of ricotta, eggs, flour, a little sugar and vanilla, dropped by the spoonful into hot oil until golden and crisp outside and tender, almost custardy inside, then showered with powdered sugar. No yeast or rising, about 30 minutes start to finish.
