Ingredients with Measurements:
- 1 cup rice flour
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Special equipment needed:
- Deep fryer or a large pot for frying

Step-by-step instructions:
1. In a mixing bowl, combine rice flour, all-purpose flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together water, eggs, and vanilla extract.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a smooth batter is formed.
