Buttermilk Doughnuts the easy way

Oh no breakfast emergency!!! The munchkins wanted doughnuts and we didn't have any.

Opening the refrigerator what do I see? Not much but there is a can of buttermilk biscuits. So borrowing a page from my mom, and grandma's book of tricks, I decided I was going to make donuts the easy way.

I grabbed the can, my powered sugar, vanilla, oil and some cooking/prep stuff. I poured about an inch or so of oil into my cast iron pan and turned on the heat to medium low, then I popped open the can of biscuits and laid them out on a cutting board. 

To make the holes in the center I pulled out my smallest hole cutter but it wasn't small enough....hmmm what am I going to use? Then it hit me (taking yet another page from mom and grandma) I used the handle of a cooking spoon and then just stretched out the hole. I quickly mixed up some icing with powered sugar,vanilla and milk.

By the time I was done the oil was ready to go. I placed in couple doughnuts at a time so the pan wouldn't get over crowded. After about 2 minutes I flipped them over and cooked for 2 more minutes.

 Once they were done I laied then out on a paper towel to drain off the extra oil (not good eats). After letting them cool a bit I dipped the into the icing and placed them on a plate and covered them in sprinkles.

 And boom just like that breakfast emergency fixed.
