I thought it would be fun to share something from this new board with you for Christmas in July, so I went to the board and made a selection. These Peppermint Mocha Doughnuts from Claire at The Simple, Sweet Life look absolutely amazing!
Actually, I thought for years that I wouldn't care much for peppermint mocha anything. It just didn't sound that great to me. But either last Christmas or the year before, I forget which, I decided to try some coffee creamer in that flavor, and now I am hooked. I'm sure these doughnuts (which I plan to try making this year) would be absolutely delicious. They are a baked doughnut, so lower in fat -- always a plus, in my book. You could try a batch this summer and just leave off the peppermint -- or, serve them on July 25th for Rudolph Day!
These look delicious. I love cake donuts as opposed to ones you have to deep-fry. This donut pan was a great invention.
ReplyDeleteThey look good... and I think peppermint is christmassy and all but I don't like the taste :(
ReplyDeleteHi ladies!
ReplyDeleteI love my donut pans, too, Pamela!
Luludou, you could make these and just leave the peppermint extract out of the dough (put in a teaspoon of vanilla instead) and leave off the peppermint on top. You would still have a yummy mocha donut.
