Thank you. And Happy Hanukah, or Merry Christmas, to you, whichever you are celebrating. As for donuts, I’m lazy. I just go to Krispy Kreme. Yours are probably better.
I used to LOVE dunkin doughnuts so when a new shop opened up in town, I HAD to have a plain (non-frosted) one for my coffee. Well gee, they shrunk the size, and it was soft, like a boxed doughnut instead of that lightly crisp outside with the little dunkin handle. They charged $1.09 for that stinkin thing PLUS tax! I said to myself...never again!
Then I learned that they don’t make them fresh at the site anymore, they get shipped in.
The ones I made tonight are just like the ones I used to get from dunkin...I’ve been searching high and low for a recipe like that, and didn’t realize I had the recipe i’ve wanted, all along. It came from Master Cookbook...a program I had many years ago, and i’d printed the recipe and put it in a plastic sleeve in a binder book. Well, tonight, I found that book and that recipe and decided to give it a try. I’ve tried many others, but wasn’t impressed. I do like this recipe though. I had to cut it in half because it was just too much for me by myself. Still, it came out exactly as I wanted.
These aren’t jelly filled, but they sent the ole blood sugar through the roof. I think it would have been ok if I had only eaten one, but I ate three....
Now, dunkin doughnuts is out of a customer!
Kispy creams are soo sweet to my taste. The ones I made didn’t taste as sweet, and of course weren’t sugar coated, either. So, I sent some down to my neighbor in the hope that she could eat them. She just had her top teeth pulled a few days ago and couldn’t eat the nut brittle. Hope she has better luck with the doughnuts. She can dunk them in her coffee to soften them without them falling apart. Using bread four makes a difference as I’ve discovered,
