Donut Birthday cake
August 19, 2009
Good recipe, simple and yummy!
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp salt
2 eggs, beaten
3/4 milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 Tbsp shortening
Preheat oven to 325. Mix flour, sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Add milk, eggs, vanilla extract and shortening to dry ingredients. Blend with mixer for 2 minutes on med-lo, just until incorporated well. Spray an 8 inch cake pan well. Fill pan 1/2 full. Bake for 20-25 minutes, just until center is done. Do not over bake. Spray mini donut pan well. Spoon remaining batter into quart ziploc bag. Close bag. Snip off one tip. Squeeze batter to fill pan. Bake at 325 for 10-12 minutes. Do not over bake.
Icing
1 cup confectioner's sugar
2 Tbsp hot water
1/2 tsp almond extract
Mix well with whisk. Pour over hot donuts. Enjoy warm or let cool.
**I actually iced half of the mini donuts with chocolate icing. Simply heat up a half cup of store bought chocolate icing in the microwave just until melted. Dip the mini donuts one at a time to cover entire donut. Then stack them on top of the 8 inch cake and place birthday candles in the holes. Everyone loved it!
Serve warm!!! Enjoy!
