Ingredients
- 1 batch homemade donuts without the glaze*
- 5 large fresh strawberries (about 100g)
- 1 and 3/4 cups (210g) confectioners’ sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 Tablespoon strawberry jam or preserves
- 3 Tablespoons (43g) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 and 1/2 cups (180g) confectioners’ sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 3 Tablespoons (45ml) milk
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup (135g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 3 Tablespoons (43g) unsalted butter
- 1 Tablespoon light corn syrup
- 1 Tablespoon water
Steps
-
Prepare the donuts according to the recipe and directions. Set warm fried donuts aside as you prepare the frosting.
-
Puree the strawberries in a food processor. Whisk the puree, confectioners’ sugar, vanilla extract, and strawberry jam together in a medium bowl. Dip the donuts into the strawberry frosting 2 or 3 times (it’s thinner than the others), then cover with sprinkles, if desired.
-
Whisk the melted butter, confectioners’ sugar, vanilla extract, 2 Tablespoons (30ml) of milk, and salt together in a medium bowl. Whisk in the remaining 1 Tablespoon (15ml) of milk to thin, if desired. It’s easier to dip the donuts if the glaze is thinner. Dip the donuts into the vanilla frosting, then cover with sprinkles, if desired.
-
Place the chocolate chips, butter, corn syrup, and water in a medium bowl. Melt in 20 second increments in the microwave, stirring after each time, until completely melted and smooth. Dip the donuts into the chocolate frosting, then cover with sprinkles, if desired.
