Donuts and Sprinkles Recipes

from Fall 2013 issue

Three Little Monkeys Studio

Vanilla Donuts
2 c flour
3/4 c sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 T shortening
2 eggs, beaten
3/4 c milk
1 tsp vanilla
Directions

Preheat over to 325 degrees.
Lightly grease a mini donut pan with cooking spray and set aside.

In a bowl, mix first four ingredients.
Then add shortening, eggs, milk and vanilla to the dry and mix and gently mix.
Fill each donut cavity 2/3 full. Tip: I used a pancake pen (Tovolo Pancake Pen) to fill the cavities. Easy and mess free!
Bake for 8-9 minutes until the tops spring back.
Allow to cool.

Glaze
1 c. powdered sugar
2 T hot water
Directions
Mix sugar and water together in a small bowl, and whisk until smooth.
Consistency will be runny, but will make a nice glaze.

Homemade Strawberry Milk
2 c fresh strawberries, sliced
1/2 c sugar
1/2 c water
1 tsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp vanilla
4 c of milk(cow, rice or almond)
Directions
Place the strawberries, sugar, water, lemon juice, and vanilla in a small saucepan over medium high heat. Bring to a boil.
Lower the heat to medium low and simmer, stirring often, until mixture thickens into a syrup (about 10 min).
Strain the strawberry syrup into a bowl, pressing the solids into the strainer with the back of a spatula or spoon to extract all of the strawberry goodness. Discard solids (or freeze for smoothies!).
Chill the strawberry syrup in the refrigerator.
Once chilled, add 2 tablespoons of the strawberry syrup into an 8oz glass of milk and stir.
