Ingredients:
Makes 8 donuts and 8 donut holes
- 2 cups vegetable oil for frying
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 4 tbsp milk
- 1 can large refrigerated biscuits (8 biscuits)- I use Pillsbury Grands Flaky Layers
- Neon green food coloring
- small red heart sprinkles
Directions:
- In 2-quart saucepan, heat oil over medium heat to 350°F to 375°F.
- In large bowl, beat powdered sugar and just enough milk until smooth and thick glaze forms.
- Add a few drops of neon green coloring and stir until you get desired color.
- Separate dough into 8 biscuits.
- Using small round lid or cookie cutter, cut hole in center of each biscuit (I used my olive oil bottle lid).
- Gently place 2 or 3 biscuits in hot oil. (Biscuit holes can also be fried!)
- Fry on one side until golden brown. With tongs, gently turn each biscuit over; fry until other side is golden brown.
- Remove doughnuts from oil, let excess oil drip off (you can also pat with a paper towel to remove any oil)
- Immediately dip into green glaze. I just dipped the top but you can dip the whole donut if you’d like! This recipe makes plenty of glaze!
- Place doughnuts on cooling rack and add one red heart sprinkle to complete your Grinch inspired donut!
- Cool 3 to 5 minutes or until glaze is set before serving.
