2 Ingredient Donuts

These are the BEST fried donuts ever. My dad used to make these when we were little and it was always exciting! Now, they are not healthy in any way, but the are delicious!

All you need is a tube of biscuits and some powdered sugar! (And a deep fryer or pan of oil.) Get your oil hot while you are cutting your biscuits!
 Ok, see that little grey thing at the bottom right of the pic, that is a cap from a 2L pop bottle, this is your little friend for making the hole!


Now most of the time I just cut the biscuits in fourths and make all donut bites, but sometimes it's fun to make real donuts! Once you have your biscuits cut and ready it's time to get your powdered sugar shaker ready! I have used a brown bag before or a tupperware bowl that has a good tight lid! 


Ok, now just put your biscuits in the hot oil and fry them babys up! You will need to flip them once to get both sides fried! 


Ok, now just take them out, put them in your powdered sugar, shake, shake, shake and BOOM- delicious, easy donuts!!!

High Five for Friday

Ok, first link up, hope I'm doing this right!

All you do for this "link up" from From My Grey Desk is go over your week and choose your 5 favorite things! So lets see...

1) Monday Bible study with my "monday makeover" group. Love these girls, currently we are studying Crazy Love by Francis Chan.

2) My kids both had GREAT reports at their conferences this week. Smart, well behaved children are a blessing :)

3)I almost can't say this but I am thankful for the rain! I don't particularly enjoy rain but it's much better than SNOW! 





4) My mini donut maker is awesome! I found a great recipe that I posted about yesterday!

5)I found some copy cat leopard TOMS at a local store for only $15, they are not as nice as TOMS but they were cheap! :)

Donut Maker

I have a new toy that I got for Christmas and I LOVE it ! It's a mini donut maker!!! I have been using muffin/cake mixed mostly to make some cute tasty donuts but today I tried this recipe I found on Pinterest! It was yummy!!! It did take a little more time than the mixes but on days that we don't have anywhere to be right away I think it's totally worth it. Tonight I'm trying this chicken taco recipe also from Pinterest!  My dinner menu has expanded lately and sometimes it's for the better and other times not so much, but it's been fun trying new recipes!!! Do any of you have a donut maker?? What are some recipes you try?
