Ingredients
for the frosting:
- 1 tablespoon butter melted
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1-2 drops food coloring
- sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease two donut pans. In a medium bowl, whisk together the oil, egg, and water until blended. Add the cake mix and mix until combined.
- Pour the batter into a large zipper bag or piping back. Snip off a corner of the bag and pipe the batter into the wells of the donut pan, filling about 3/4 full.
- Bake 13-15 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes, then carefully remove the donuts to a cooling rack to cool completely.
- After the donuts have cooled, whisk together the melted butter, powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla. Add additional milk as needed to make an icing that is easy pourable but not runny. Stir in the food coloring until blended.
- Dip the donuts into the icing and place on a cooling rack to set. Add sprinkles if desired.
