Notes
- Measure your flour correctly! Adding too much flour to the recipe is the most common mistake. The best, and easiest way to measure flour is by using a scale. If you don't have one then fluff your flour with a spoon, sprinkle it into your measuring cup, and use a knife to level it off.
- You can substitute whole milk yogurt for the sour cream if desired, you won really tell the difference.
- Spoon a thin layer of each color glaze on a plate and dip a donut or two and then reapply more as needed. This will help keep some nice clean lines instead of a muddy mess.

- When you dip your donuts rotate rotate them around, but don't twist, just a bit to ensure the top is completely glazed. When you pull the donuts up tilt them a it so the stripes are vertical, this will help keep the colors distinct.
