But just every now and so often anĀ opportunityĀ arises to call upon the powers of a mini doughnut maker!Ā
The Snowmen
The recipe;
-2 cups flour
-4 teaspoons baking powder
-1 teaspoon salt
-1 cup milk
-1/2 cup yoghurt
-2 eggs (more or less depending on the size)
You can also addĀ sugarĀ and vanilla extract if you like.
Mix all the ingredients in a bowl. Turn on the doughnut maker and fill the holes in theĀ doughnutĀ maker with pancake mix – it says with a spoon in the originalĀ instructionsĀ but it’sĀ way to time consuming – IĀ recommendĀ youĀ use a old ketchup bottle (or anything similar) and fill it with the mix – it will make it a whole lot easier and faster to fill the holes.
Decorating
I didn’t quite thing through this project before I started it so there are some things that can be done better š
First I used powderedĀ sugarĀ to make all theĀ doughnutsĀ white (I shouldĀ have used white glazing or white chocolate here!). Then I used M&M’s and Skittles to make the noses and chocolate chips for eyes and mouth. While the noses worked out great and were nice and secure the chocolate chips were pretty loose – I ended up usingĀ butter creamĀ asĀ “glue” but they still didn’t stick all that well and that’s why I suggest using white chocolate glaze instead of powderedĀ sugar.
