Ingredients:
1 can Pillsbury Grands Homestyle Biscuits (8
biscuits)
Vegetable oil, for frying
For the Peanut Butter
Filling:
1 cup vanilla greek yogurt
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
4 tablespoons powdered sugar
4 tablespoons milk (nonfat, 2%, or regular)
For the Chocolate
Glaze:
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 tablespoons milk (nonfat, 2%, or regular)
Sprinkles, for topping
Instructions
Place vegetable oil in a heavy bottom pot and
heat until it reaches 175°C. Leave your candy thermometer in the pot during
frying so it can regulate the heat up or down if it gets to hot or cold. A
heavy bottomed pot is best for frying, it’s easier to regulate the heat that
way than with a thinner pot.
Drop 2-3 biscuits in your pot (depending on the
size of your pot). Cook for about 3 minutes until they are a deep golden,
flipping halfway. Remove from oil using a slotted spoon and place the cooked
donuts on a cookie sheet topped with two layers of paper towels. Let cool
before filling and glazing.
Make the Peanut Butter Filling: Whisk all
ingredients except milk until smooth. Add 2 tablespoons of milk, whisk. The end
product should be the consistency of pudding. Depending on the brand of Greek
Yogurt you use, it may need up to 4 tablespoons of milk. (I used Yoplait Greek
and used 4 tablespoons.)
Place the filling in a pastry bag fitted with
the Wilton 230 tip (or similar). (You can use a ziploc bag for frosting, but
you really need a pastry bag for that tip. You can also use a squeeze bottle.)
Press the tip into the center of each doughnut and fill. You can also turn the
doughnut 90° and fill again to make sure you’re getting enough in. You’ll know
you added too much when you remove the tip and it squirts out.
Make the Chocolate Glaze: whisk powdered sugar,
cocoa, extract, and milk in a medium bowl. If glaze is too thick to dip, you
can add up to 1 tablespoon more glaze. Dip tops of the doughnuts in glaze.
Place on a wax paper lined cookie sheet and sprinkles with sprinkles. Let dry
completely, about 30 minutes to 1 hour.
