Sara Hailey’s Chocolate Dipped Doughnuts and Doughnut Holes
x
Print Options
Description
My daughter loves to cook and most of the time she would pick a cooking show over cartoons any day of the week. She saw a cooking show about making doughnuts out of canned biscuit dough and we were making them the very next morning!
Ingredients
- 1 can (8 Oz. Can) Canned Biscuit
- Canola Oil, For Frying
- 1-½ cup Confectioners Sugar
- ½ cups Dark Chocolate Cocoa
- 3 Tablespoons Butter, Softened
- ⅓ cups Milk
- 2 teaspoons Corn Syrup
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
Preparation
Heat 2 inches of oil in a large skillet to about 350 degrees. Lay all your biscuits out on a sheet pan and use a bottle cap to cut the centers out of each biscuit. (My children love to help do this part.) Let the biscuits rest at room temperature for a few minutes so they start to rise.
Fry them in the oil until they are a light golden brown and flip them over to brown the other side. Place them on a paper towel to drain any extra oil off. Also take the holes and fry them. They cook very quickly, so keep and eye on them.
Making icing:
Mix confectioner’s sugar and cocoa together. Add in butter and mix well. Next add the milk. To give the icing a beautiful shine, add the corn syrup and last add the vanilla.
Hold the cooled doughnuts and doughnut holes upside down and dip in the chocolate icing. (Kids can help dip the doughnuts!)
You can also decorate the chocolate doughnuts with sprinkles.
Another fun thing for the kids to help out with is coating the doughnuts and doughnut holes with cinnamon/sugar. Use a paper bag, add the cinnamon/suagr mixture in and drop the doughnuts in and let the kids shake away. Powdered sugar works great, too.

Oh we made these long ago when I was a child and a few years back were introduced to them again for 4-H competition. We used canned cream cheese or chocolate icing to smear on them making them an even easier treat, then if you want, dip them in sprinkles. Thank you Sara for sharing this, it sure brought back lots of fun memories.

We love these too, I saw some honey biscuits the other day and thought those would be really good too.

My kids and I make these all the time! We found that buttermilk biscuits taste the best. We even make them while camping in a dutch oven over the fire!
