Notes

Liz says...
I love the mini doughnuts, but you can certainly use this recipe in any doughnut pan. If you don't have a doughnut pan, you can try baking them in a muffin tin, but I think a doughnut pan is well worth the money {usually less than $10}

Stay tuned for more Easter treats all this week!
