Mashed Potato Donuts
The day after Thanksgiving is always a nice lazy day. Save some of those mashed potatoes and try out this easy donut hole recipe from my friends at Berkley Donuts in Denver. Let me know how it goes. 🍩 I posted a video in the video section of the website as well. Have fun with this!

1 Âľ cups flour
½ cup sugar
½ Tablespoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
Âľ cup cocoa powder
2 Tablespoons yogurt
1.5 Tablespoons vanilla extract
ÂĽ cup cold mashed potatoes
1 cup milk
2 Tablespoons butter
2 large eggs
With paddle attachment on a stand mixer (see note below), blend room temperature butter and flour until it is coarse and resembles cornmeal. Add potatoes and sugar. Once incorporated, mix in remaining ingredients until it is a smooth batter.
Using small 2 oz. scoop or spoon, drop dough into hot oil (360 degrees). Fry for 20 seconds on each side and transfer to a towel-lined pan to absorb excess fat.
Strawberry Glaze
2 tablespoons strawberry milk
2 cups of powdered sugar
Few drops of red food coloring
Whisk together the milk and powdered sugar, once combined add food coloring
Final Steps:
Once chocolate donut holes are cooled, drop into bowl with glaze and roll them around. Move them to a cooling rack and add sprinkles before frosting hardens.
Note – If you d

on’t own a stand mixer, whisk dry and wet ingredients separately, then combine and mix by hand.
