Doughnuts...




I saw these on http://www.cookingwithcarrie.blogspot.com/ and knew that I had to try them. They were so easy and so yummy. I cant wait to try them with diffrent toppings.

2-4 cups of oil for frying (the oil needs to be at least 2 inches deep)
1 refrigerated tube of 10 biscuits (the smaller tubes, they come in a 4-pack)
Glaze
2 T butter
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons milk

1.Start warming the oil in a pan on the stove. On med heat the oil takes about 10-15 minutes to warm up.
test the oil by dripping a drop or two of water in the oil. If the water pops then the oil is ready.
2.For the glaze. Melt the butter in the microwave and add the powdered sugar, vanilla and milk. Stir until combined.

3.For the donuts. Use a small circle to cut circles in each biscuit. ( I used the end of a glue stick tube)

4.Place a few donuts in the oil and cook until browned this only takes about 30 sec to one min. Flip and cook for another 1 minute until brown.


5.Pull the donuts out of the oil and set them on  paper towels to drain the excess oil. While the donuts are warm, dip them in the glaze.


6.Place on a cooling rack to set up. Add sprinkles at this time while the glaze is still wet.
