Ingredients
- 1 tube biscuit dough flaky jumbo, 8 biscuits
- 4 cups vegetable oil
Glaze:
- 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 3 Tbsp milk
Instructions
- Place the vegetable oil into a heavy bottom pot. You want at least 2 inches of oil covering the bottom of the pot. Start heating the oil over medium-high heat. (We want it to reach 350 degrees).
- Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Set this next to the pot of hot oil.
- Make the glaze. Stir together powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk until smooth. Set this aside.
- Open the can of biscuits and use scissors to cut each biscuit into 6 pieces. Roll the pieces in your hands to make them as round as possible.
- Use a slotted spoon to carefully place a few donut holes at a time into the hot oil. (Do not crowd them, as this will cause the oil to drop in temperature.) It will only take a few minutes for each to cook.
- Remove the golden donut holes to the baking sheet lined with paper towels. Allow them to cool slightly.
- Use a fork or tongs to dip and swirl each donut, one by one, into the glaze. Allow the excess glaze to drip off, then place the glazed donut holes in a wreath shape on a large round platter. Make sure they are touching each other so that the glaze will help them stick together.
- Lightly sprinkle with powdered sugar and red and green sprinkles for a more festive wreath!
