Oreo Donuts!

Recently came upon this recipe that piqued my interest. I mean come on, Oreo Donuts! What a perfect mashup. I tried it out and I must say, they're quite delicious.

Baked Oreo Donuts Makes: 9

Donut Ingredients:

• 1 egg
• 1/3 cup buttermilk
• 4 tablespoons butter, melted and slightly cooled
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 3/4 cup flour
• 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (Dutch processed or natural)
• 1/4 cup light brown sugar
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 6 Oreos, finely crushed

Icing Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup butter, softened
• 1/4 cup shortening
• 2 cups confectioners’ sugar
• 2 teaspoons vanilla
• 4 tablespoons milk

Directions:

1. Make the donuts: preheat oven to 350 F; grease two standard size donut pans.

2. Whisk egg, buttermilk, butter, and vanilla in a medium bowl. Add all dry ingredients except the Oreos, and whisk until well blended. Gently fold in half the crushed Oreos (reserve the rest).

3. Transfer the batter to a zip-top bag and snip an opening in the corner. Fill the wells of your donut pans about halfway. Bake for 10 minutes or until a toothpick tests clean; transfer donuts to a wire rack to cool completely.

4. Make the icing: beat the butter, shortening, confectioners’ sugar, and vanilla until smooth and well blended. Add milk, one tablespoon at a time, until icing is still thick but pourable. Dip cooled donuts into icing and place on a wire rack set over a baking sheet (to catch drips). Sprinkle with reserved Oreo crumbs and let set.

Then enjoy these delicious goodies.
