Super Easy Doughnuts
(photo#8) i substituted donut receipe for Phillsberry Buttermilk Biscuits; DEEP fry each in veg oil few minutes, turning til golden-brown all sides (don't overcook them, if they are cooking too fast, lower flame, othewise insides will be sticky); they will be about the size of a lemon, or 3bites; allow to cool on paper towel about 20 minutes before filling. i found a filling receipe for 'raspberry sauce' as follows: One 12oz bag of frozen raspberries (not in syrup) ½ cup + 3 TB of water ¾ cup white sugar/Splenda 1 TB lemon juice 3 TB cornstarch ¼ cup cold water Gently simmer the raspberries, water, sugar and lemon juice for 15 minutes, in a small heavy bottomed pan. After 15 minutes, you can push the berries through a sieve if want a seedless filling (I got rid of the seeds). Bring the strained berries back to a full simmer. Dissolve the cornstarch in the ¼ cup of water and whisk it into the simmering berries. Bring it back to a boil, and simmer for another five minutes. Cool/chill completely. It will thicken as it cools. i followed this receipe exactly and the Raspberry sauce was slightly tart, absolutel delish!; i would not make any change in the amount of sugar unless you like it sweet-sweet; i cooled the filling overnight, but i think it would be okay if refrigerated an hour or two; i used a pastry bag with the long tip; also; poked side of the donut with tip of a knife where pastry tip inserted to prevent squeezing donut; dust TOPs of donuts with conf. sugar.
