Every Christmas Eve we make them.
A good short cut. Get Pillsbury biscuit dough (yeah, the ones in the blue tubes)
Poke a hole in the middle of them.
Make sure the Crisco in the skillet in very hot. Put the donuts in the skillet (they will float). When nice and brown on one side flip 'em over.
Once you take them out of the skillet put them in a paper bag with brown sugar, and cinnamon,and shake em up.
They look SO GOOD!! (I bet you I could eat a dozen and not even blink!!)
Brilliant! ... Have you tried the croissants that come in sheets divided into triangles? Sprinkle a generaous protion of cinnamon and sugar onto the triangles before rolling them up. Bake as usual. Serve to wifey in bed with pot of Earl Gray Tea. Well, in your case, enjoy them in bed when hubby brings them in.
Iguess you could inject jelly into them when they are done in the skillet,just don't poke a hole in them before you put them in the skillet.
Wow! I’m making that at Deer Camp this year!
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm yum!!!
