All doughnuts just in time for Chanukah- a traditional cake to eat on this festival of the lights (normally round ones but for me, a doughnut is a doughnut )! Fantastic
Thanks Hannah – Enjoy Chanukah
These look delicious!
Thanks Coffeemom. You should try it, your family will love it. You can use any filling you like. Enjoy
I’m not much of a baker, but i think we will have to try this one soon. My daughter loves helping in the,kitchen now so she will love this. We even got her a little apron with a chefs hat and her own sized utensils for Christmas
That will be just fantastic. Would love to see her with her apron and cheft hat and busy baking. Have fun and Enjoy
I will be sure to put pictures up on my blog 🙂
Great, please link me on the post, that will be super awesome. Looking forward to that post and picture.
Will do!
They sound good and easy. What about using custard instead of whipped cream. Any recipe for custard?
Custard will also be perfect: https://cookandenjoyrecipes.wordpress.com/2016/07/10/ess-kahlua-custard-nests/
I have included one I made, and feel free to omit the kahlua.
The other option would be to check out the following and see what will work best for you.

I will reblog this if I can make it first. I have always wanted to make doughnuts.
Perfect and thank you for reblogging. I loved and enjoyed eating them, but as we prefer to stay away from deep oil prepared foods, this is a no no for me.
Me too. Need to have guests.
