Homemade Donuts
December 3, 2007 8:35 am Food
Back on Halloween a friend of mine introduced me to homemade donuts. Technically its a way of cheating, but I still call them homemade. Since having them on Halloween I have done this with my wife twice and I must say that I am convinced that these donuts are the best that I’ve ever had (yes, even better than Krispy Kreme).
So here’s what you do: get a pack of Pillsbury Buttermilk Biscuits. Open up the canister (this always makes me jump 
) , rip a hole in the middle of the donut, and then put it in hot oil. Let one side cook, then flip it and cook the other side.
Place the donut on a plate covered with napkins or paper towels to absorb the extra oil, then top it with your favorite frosting and enjoy! My personal favorite is cream cheese frosting, but my wife is a big fan of chocolate. I need to try strawberry sometime…
Simple recipe, but man are they good! Give them a try and you might just agree with me that they are better than any other donut you’ve ever tasted!

They are definitely homemade. However I would use another word which I think fits better. Customized.
You should start a new TV show: Pimp my donut.

I’ve tried this recipe a bunch of times before and it’s actually quit good! Made them all the time in college until Krispy Kreme came to my area.

Homemade donuts is something that alot of people should look into. Especially with the economy in the shape it’s in. You’d be amazed at how much some people spend on donuts each month.

The best topping is surely just sugar!
