Hey!!! Since Valentine's day is so close I thought I’d make these cute little Valentine's day themed doughnuts.
Ingredients
For the Doughnuts:
⅔ cup plain flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
Pinch of salt
¼ cup milk
½ teaspoon of cinnamon
¼ teaspoon of vanilla
5 tbsp of softened butter
⅓ cup sugar
1 egg
For the Toppings:
Pink and white candy melts
Milk chocolate
Heart shaped sprinkles
Preheat oven to 350ºF
First, you want to take a large bowl and mix the butter and sugar until well combined and then add the egg and mix again.
Next, add your flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon to a separate bowl and mix.
Then in another bowl (many bowls I know), add the vanilla and the milk. Now add the ⅓ of the dry ingredients to the butter mixture and mix and then add half the wet ingredients and mix and so on. You should start with dry and end with dry.
Butter the doughnut pan so the doughnuts won’t stick. Put the dough into a piping bag and cut up the tip of the bag. Then, pipe the doughnut dough into the pan and set in the oven at 350ºF for about ten minutes or whenever you can stick a toothpick in them and it comes out clean.
For the toppings, aka the best part, melt your pink candy melts in one bowl, your white candy melts in another, and your chocolate in a third. Scoop the chocolate into a piping bag with a small circular tip, or just cut off a very small amount off the tip of the piping bag. When the candy has melted and your doughnuts have cooled, dip your doughnuts into either bowl. Take your piping bag and drizzle the chocolate over the doughnuts and place has many sprinkles as you want on. Put off to side until the candy melts and chocolate set.
Then, enjoy!
I'm really impressed with myself because I was able to make these so well, haha. They taste so good too! Cinnamon is perfect in everything honestly. Happy Valentine's Day!!
