Babycakes Sour Cream Doughnuts!


So, I really, really, really love doughnuts.  This is a true shame because they do NOT love me, in the sense that they go straight to my hips and belly...ugh.  This, however, does definitely not prevent me from eating them, let alone making them!  For my birthday, my dad bought me a mini-doughnut maker from babycakes that bakes mini doughnuts.  It's really cute and I used it the very next day and made some very cute and delicious doughnuts.  The maker comes with instructions and a few recipes.  I decided to use their recipes first and once I get the hang of the machine, I'll try using different recipes.  Now, even if you do not have this doughnut maker, you can still use this recipe with a doughnut pan, like this one.  So dear readers, enjoy!

Mix together the wet ingredients and combine with the dry ingredients.
