cups

Instructions
Place a cooling rack over a baking tray and set aside.
Place your frying oil in a dutch oven over medium heat. Use a candy thermometer to ensure you bring the oil to 350F.
Cut out the center of each biscuit and then stretch the biscuit a bit to make the hole and biscuit donut wider - approximately by 1/2".
Once oil is hot, fry each donut individually for about 1 minute per side, until golden brown.
Set each fried donut on the cooling rack to allow excess oil to drip off.
Once all donuts have been fried, turn off the heat for the oil.
Sift the powdered sugar and cocoa powder into a large bowl. Whisk together.
Whisk in the milk, vanilla extract and salt.
Dip each donut into the chocolate glaze, then place back on the cooling rack until glaze is set, about 30 minutes.

: Great recipe for a crowd or for freezing, simply increase the ingredients proportionately and fry as directed.
Add Sprinkles:
Really sprinkles make everything better, therefore, add jimmies, sprinkles or even mini chocolate chips on top.
Short cut tip:
Feel free to use chocolate melts with a splash of heavy cream to glaze your donuts.
Alternate ingredient:
Use gluten free biscuit mix and/or sugar alternative to make the glaze so that it is diet appropriate for your family.
Alternate cooking method tip:
Air Frying these donuts are amazing too.
