Yield:
20 servings
Ingredients
3⁄4 cup packed brown sugar
6 tablespoons butter
1⁄3 cup milk
3¼ cups confectioner's sugar
1½ teaspoons maple flavoring
Canola or vegetable oil*
2 tubes home-style refrigerator biscuits
1 cup flour
Directions
For frosting, in a medium saucepan combine brown sugar and butter. Bring to boiling. Add milk and return to boiling. Remove from heat. Whisk in confectioner's sugar and maple flavoring until smooth. Set aside.
Heat canola or vegetable oil (*amount depends on deep fryer capacity) in a deep fryer or stove- top pan to medium-high heat. Roll 1 raw biscuit dough into a ball. Flatten into a circle. Remove center of circle. Stretch the dough to expand the hole. Dust with flour and add to oil. Dough takes only seconds to fry. When one side has browned, use a slotted spoon to turn it over. Remove when the donut is golden brown and transfer to a baking sheet lined with paper towels. Repeat for each biscuit.
After each mini donut has cooled for 5 minutes, dip top into warm frosting. Let frosting set for 3 minutes before serving.
