Cinnamon Sugar Mini Doughnuts with Nutella Dipping Sauce

Recipe - Cinnamon Sugar Mini Doughnuts with Nutella Dipping Sauce
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 can of Flaky Biscuit Dough don't get the southern biscuit style
  • 1/8 Cup of Cinnamon Sugar
  • 3 Tbsp. Nutella or Chocolate Hazelnut Spread
  • 1 Tbsp. Heavy Whipping Cream
  • 2 Cups of Peanut Oil

Method
 

  1. Step 1 - Open the dough can and form the dough into rings. You have two options, you can use a doughnut mold (which I used) to make the doughnut shapes. Or you can make a 5 inch long thin dough piece and then connect the ends. Once you've formed your doughnuts, line them on a sheet or plate and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  2. Step 2- Mix the Nutella and cream together until it becomes smooth. At first it will look sort of chunk, just keep stirring until smooth.
  3. Step 3 - Heat the peanut oil in a medium sized pot so that the oil depth is about an inch or two.
  4. Step 4 - Once the oil is hot enough, test it by laying a scrap piece of dough in the oil to test, if it sizzles immediately you're good to go.
  5. Step 5 - Now gently start laying the doughnuts one or two at a time in the hot oil. Cook each side for about 30 seconds to a minute, flip and cook till golden brown. Shouldn't take very long, you have to eye ball it.
  6. Step 6- Once all the doughnuts are cooked, lay them onto a plate and cover them with cinnamon sugar.
  7. Step 7 - Serve with your nutella sauce and enjoy!
