Colorful Funfetti Donut Holes

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Colorful Funfetti Donut Holes.

1. Step 1

   To create a delightful batch of donut holes, start by making the glaze.

2. Step 2

   In a mixing bowl, combine confectioners' sugar, 1/4 cup of colorful sprinkles, 3 tablespoons of milk, a splash of lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.

3. Step 3

   Whisk these ingredients together until you achieve a smooth and glossy glaze that will add a sweet finish to your treats.

4. Step 4

   Next, let’s prepare the dough.

5. Step 5

   In a large bowl, mix together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and 3/4 teaspoon of salt until well combined.

6. Step 6

   In a separate small bowl, whisk together 1 cup of milk, an egg, and another teaspoon of vanilla extract.

7. Step 7

   Gradually pour this mixture into the flour blend, stirring gently until everything is just combined.

8. Step 8

   Now, add in the melted butter and 1/4 cup of sprinkles, mixing until a soft dough forms.

9. Step 9

   It’s time to fry those delicious donut holes! Heat at least 2 inches of oil in a large pot to 350°F (175°C).

10. Step 10

    While the oil heats, prepare a baking sheet or wire rack lined with paper towels to catch any excess oil after frying.

11. Step 11

    Using a small ice cream scoop, carefully drop spoonfuls of dough into the hot oil, being mindful not to overcrowd the pot.

12. Step 12

    Fry the donut holes for about 1 minute on each side, or until they turn a beautiful golden brown.

13. Step 13

    Once cooked, use a slotted spoon to transfer them to the paper towels to drain and cool slightly.

14. Step 14

    Repeat this process with the remaining dough until all your donut holes are fried to perfection.

15. Step 15

    Now comes the fun part! Place a wire rack over a baking sheet to catch any drips.

16. Step 16

    One by one, dip each warm donut hole into the glaze, allowing any excess to drip off before placing them back on the rack.

17. Step 17

    This step is where the magic happens, as the glaze coats each donut hole in a sweet, shiny layer.

18. Step 18

    Once all the donut holes are glazed, they’re ready to be enjoyed! Gather your friends and family, serve these delightful treats, and watch as smiles light up the room.
