More Donuts

Awhile back, I posted a topic about Yummy Homemade Donuts that I had found on  Ashley's Busy blog.
Well, we made them again but used confectionery sugar as a powdered donut topping. For chocolate powdered topping, I mixed the confectionery sugar with some cocoa powder.

It was YUMMY!

Homemade Donuts!

I found this recipe on my friends' blog,  Ashley's Busy. These homemade donuts are TO DIE FOR! So good, worth every calorie! I made them on Saturday morning and needless to say, Mike was a very happy guy! I also felt good about eating it because I felt that since I made the sugar coating and fried them myself, that I knew they were 100% good even though they were not 'good' for my bootie!

Here is the recipe and be warned, you will love them and want them again and again!

Ingredients:

• A  can of Pilsbury Homestyle Grands! Biscuits (NOT the flaky ones)
• canola oil
• sugar
• ground cinnamon
• cocoa powder

Directions:

• POP open the can of biscuits and lay them on a plate
• take a butter knife and cut a circle in the middle of the biscuit
• heat oil in a skillet to about 350 degrees (I poured the oil about halfway up the height of the donut)

while the oil is heating, prepare sugar coatings:

• in one plate mix sugar and cocoa powder. I would estimate 1 part cocoa to 4 parts sugar.(depending on how chocolate-y you like things)
• in another plate mix sugar and ground cinnamon. (Just mix it until you think it looks yummy, you really can't go wrong)

Now back to the donuts:

• Don't forget to put the donut holes in the frying pan
  
• Once the oil is hot enough, fry one side of the donut for 2 minutes (or until golden brown) 
• Fry the other side of the donut for another 2 minutes (or until golden brown)
• Once fully golden brown, CAREFULLY, take the donuts out and sprinkle with your sugar coating of choice.

*Tip: Even though it is tempting to, don't sprinkle too much sugar coating, a little sprinkle goes a long way!
