Nah!! I don't like Krispy Kremes, but Dunkin Donuts...Yes!!:p:p

Yeahbutt, Honey, do you send care packages..huh, huh, huh...:D

Good girl Char! I love donuts!

When we were kids, we used to take a can of cheap biscuits in the tube. Use the vanilla bottle lid to punch a hole out and then drop them into hot oil in a pan... Put them on paper towels and roll in sugar.

We thought those were the best tasting donuts we ever had.

Think those tube biscuits used to be about 10 cents a can.

Great memory.

I aint kiddin a bit...........

Dont knock it till ya try it........I dont make them anymore..or havent in a long time ...
were tryin to cut down.....(lol yeah I know.....yeah right?)

I just used whatever was on sale.....
find something bout the right size.....a water bottle lid or something works fine....poke out your holes....cook them too.......I even would twist some of mine ..........
and deep fry....flip them over to cook both sides......
I used a wooden spoon to flip and then use the handle to take the donuts out.....kinda thread them on the handle and let the grease soak off on paper towels.....

Then while still very hot dip in glaze.....thread them back on a wooden spoon handle and allow it to rest cross ways on top of your glaze bowl so the excess glaze drips off.......

I make a powder sugar/vanillia/or lil orange juice glaze.....also sometimes add cho. cocoa, or pinch of cimmimon to it as well.....or simply roll in cin and sugar or powder sugar.....

Try it....YUMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My Mom used to make the biscuit kind of donuts, too. Not very often, though, so they were definitely a treat. The neighbors dog loved them!! We'd save a couple for him and take them over!!

During the holidays she would add the red and green sprinkles to the glaze or powdered sugar topping and they were so pretty.
