Christina Milian loves beignets so much, she opened a whole food truck devoted to them. 

Christina Milian loves beignets so much, she opened a whole food truck devoted to them. 

Beignet Box, co-founded and co-owned by Milian, brings the famed New Orleans pastry to Los Angeles, with a twist. 

"It's a lot lighter, not as dense," she explained to Inside Edition. "... I don't feel as guilty when making it."

Milian showed how to make the mouth-watering treat. First, she fries her special dough until its the perfect golden brown color. Then, she adds lots and lots of powdered sugar. 

"I'm going to get these babies nice and sweet," Milian said. "Sugar them up."

Customers who visit the truck get an extra treat when they realize their server is a famous pop star, making the dessert that much sweeter.
