D is for Doughnuts

August 27, 2011

Eric loves donuts! On trips to the grocery store they are his special treat reward for tagging along and helping me unload bags and bags of groceries! (Wink. Wink.)

And while our local grocery store produces half way decent baked goods they are not the greatest. And obviously depending the time of day can be stale and just blah.

So for what seems like ions and ions Eric has been asking me to make his favorite doughnuts (cake doughnuts) at home. I am not a fan of frying foods so this was a request that I did not immediately jump on. That is until I discovered Wilton’s Doughnut Pan (insert white light and angle halo)!

This pan is the best thing ever!! It is perfect for making those dense cake doughnuts Eric loves. When I bought this perfect pan, I envisioned all the endless doughnut possibilities available. And boy was I giddy when I dreamt up these S’mores doughnuts. Then when I finally made these doughnuts, they were love at first bite, causing me to do ‘the happy dance’ in my kitchen.

So take my word for it, make the small investment and get this pan, because you will be seeing many more delightful doughnut creations to come.

    I'm so bad, because I finally invested in a doughnut pan, but I've only used it once!! These look soooo good – I might need to pull it out asap!
