Decorate time
It was challenging to put everything together. The eyes were too small for the hole in the donut's center. So I filled it with red frosting, which I allowed to continue onto the white glazed donut, Red Eyes.
I still found it a bit boring afterward, so I threw some more skulls and bones at it (literally). And then it met with my approval. After some hesitation about whether they wanted to eat this, the kids thought it was worth a try, and they loved the donuts. They were scarily delicious!
What do you need for Fun Halloween Doughnuts?
To prepare this Halloween Donuts Recipe, you require the following ingredients. You can find the correct amounts in the recipe card at the bottom of the blog:
- Confectioner's sugar: For making the glaze. This sugar is white, which is also the color of the glaze. But you can make it all colors by adding some food coloring.
- Lemon juice: Gives a fresh citrus taste to the glaze.
- Donuts: A sweet fried bun with a hole in the middle. Undecorated plain donuts are used here, but you can also buy them filled (or fill them yourself).
- Red writing icing tube:Â The red writing icing tube contains red icing. It can be purchased in the supermarket or (online) cooking and baking stores. Before use, heat it in a glass of hot water for 5 minutes, then you can decorate it better.
- Sugar decorations:Â Buy sugar eyes and Halloween sugar decorations. These are available at the supermarket and (online) cooking and baking stores.Â
