Cooking Instructions
1.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C).
2.
In a standing mixer, combine Butter (1/2 cup), Brown Sugar (4 Tbsp), Granulated Sugar (1/3 cup), Vanilla Extract (1 tsp), and Almond Extract (1 tsp). Add in the Egg (1) and mix just until combined.
3.
Stop the mixer and add in the All-Purpose Flour (2 cups), Baking Soda (1 tsp), and Salt (1 tsp). Turn the mixer on slow and slowly drizzle in the Buttermilk (1 cup).
4.
The batter will be thick. Place in a piping bag and cut a dime-sized hole for the opening. Spray two mini donut pans with cooking spray and pipe in the batter until 3/4 full.
5.
Bake in the oven for 7-8 minutes. Let cool in the pans for 5 minutes before turning out onto a cooling rack. Let cool completely.
6.
Mix the Powdered Confectioners Sugar (2 1/2 cups), Butter (4 Tbsp), Heavy Cream (4 Tbsp), Almond Extract (as needed), and Food Coloring (to taste) together and heat in a microwave oven in 30-second increments until it’s consistency is good enough for drizzling.
7.
Dip the donuts into the frosting and place sprinkles on immediately. Mix the frosting in between each donut. You will need to re-heat the frosting as needed every few minutes.
8.
Serve once the frosting on all the donuts has set.
