DR PEPPER DONUTS!

I’ve had a sweet craving recently and now that we are in the hot muggy days of summer I thought what could be better that cake and ice cream?  We are having friends over for a cookout and we’ve got hamburgers & corn on the grill, coleslaw and potato salad but I wanted something DIFFERENT for dessert.  I had already grabbed some Dr Pepper for the cookout and looked at my wife and asked if the thought Dr Pepper donuts would taste good?  She looked at me and laughed, Dr Pepper makes everything better!

Ingredients

Dr. Pepper Donuts

• 1½ cups flour
• ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 tsp baking powder
• ½ tsp salt
• 2 eggs
• ⅔ cup sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• ¾ cup of Dr. Pepper
• 2 tbsp canola oil

Dr. Pepper Glaze

• ¼ cup unsalted butter
• 3 tbsp of Dr. Pepper
• 2½ cups powdered sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• ½ tsp salt

Instructions

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• Add the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt in a bowl and mix together.
• Next add the eggs, sugar, vanilla, Dr. Pepper and oil together.
• Spray the doughnut pan with cooking spray for baking.
• Bake 10-12 minutes at 325 degrees.
• Remove from oven and place onto a wire rack.
• My donuts came out of the pan very easily.
• Allow the donuts to cool.

Glaze Instructions
