Anyway, I have a major problem, as my mom would say. I love to bake, cook, and create. I love trying new recipes and making fun things. However, when it comes to sweets, I enjoy making it a lot more than I enjoy eating it. (That's not a problem in the eyes of those who we end up giving our treats to...well, not in their eyes, but maybe their hips.) I made brownies the other day so I could have some batter, but its now been almost a week and there's still 1/4 of the pan left...unheard of for my mom and sisters to let chocolate linger in a house.
But I really wanted to make donuts. So I got a recipe online that I really wanted to try. However, Braden has been BEGGING to make Cheryl Bluth's famous donuts for almost 5 years now, so I made those instead. (Point being, I still have a new recipe I need to try, which means we'll be making more donuts.) I borrowed a friend's deep fryer (makes it SO much easier!) and got to work.
Here's the end result! They were REALLY good last night and pretty good today.
What am I to do with all these donuts!? Fortunately, and unbeknownst to me, Braden had volunteered to take "breakfast" for his team at work today. So my creations had a home.
I'm still going to make the other kind, probably tonight or Monday. Who wants the leftovers?

I had no idea it was National Donut Day (and here I was thinking that I was a donut fan)...I may have to make some. If you want another recipe to try (perhaps for next year) I would highly recommend "Spudnuts" My grandma used to make them and they are DEE-licious!
Looks delicious. We make easy doughnuts with refrigerated biscuit dough. I did know today was national doughnut day and Dunkin Doughnuts also giving out free doughnuts today with a purchase of a drink.
yum! I'm totally going to krispy kreme when Chris get's back.
Donuts make me very happy. Ü
