This is the best donuts that i have ever made and my family really loves these amazing donuts.
Equipment
- Donut Pan
- Hand mixer
- Mixing Bowls
- Measuring Cups
Ingredients
Doughnuts:
- 1 box funfetti cake mix I used the Rainbow Cake Mix from Duncan Hines, 15.25 oz
- ¾ cup milk I used 2% but you could use whole milk
- 2 eggs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or any vegetable oil you like

Glaze:
- 1 cup powder sugar
- 2 tablespoons salted melted butter ou could use unsalted if you prefer.
- 2 tablespoons milk
- Pinch of salt

- ¼ cup rainbow sprinkles optional
Instructions
Doughnuts
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Spray oil on a donut pan.
- In a large bowl with a hand mixer, combine all the ingredients. Mix until all ingredients are blended.
- Pour the batter into a piping bag. (This step makes it easier for pouring into the donut pan)
- Cut the end tip of the piping bag when ready to pipe.
- Pipe each of the prepared doughnut pan to 2/3 full.
- Bake for 8 minutes or until the donuts are nice and golden
- The donuts should be golden brown, and when insert a toothpick it comes out clean.
- Allow the donuts to cool off for 2-3 minutes in the pan.
- Take the donuts out of the pan on a cooling rack.
- Repeat steps 6 to 10 until you have used all the batter. I like to re-oil my pan in between each batch.
Glaze
- In a large bowl, combine all the ingredientsfor the glaze.
Assemble
- Dip half of each donut in the glaze.
- Sprinkle the rainbow sprinkles if you so desire.
- Serve and Enjoy!
