Notes
Tips for biscuit donuts:
Nutritional information is an estimation only based on 4 cups of oil and undecorated donuts.
For glazed donuts, spread thin layer of frosting while donut is hot.
For frosted donuts, allow to cool slightly before frosting.
For cinnamon sugar donuts, roll hot donut into cinnamon sugar or dip first into melted butter.
For sprinkle donuts, top with sprinkle immediately after frosting before frosting hardens.
