Strawberry & Cream filled Biscuit Donuts


flourmewithlove.com


On the weekends our life slows down a little and I love to make breakfast for all of us.  We have dinner every night, but there is something about a big beautiful breakfast in the morning.  It's such a refreshing way to start the day.  As much as I love having the breakfast, sometimes the preparation can be daunting!  That's why I love making recipes that don't require a lot of time.  I looked into the fridge, saw the package of biscuits and decided to make biscuit donuts.  These are so simple, you can fill them with anything you like, they don't take a lot of time to make, and they taste delicious...the perfect breakfast treat!



Ingredients are as follows: 


1 (16.3 ounce) can of large/grand refrigerated biscuits
8 ounces cream cheese
1/2 C powdered sugar
1 tsp.vanilla
1/3 C strawberry preserves
1 1/2 C powdered sugar
6 Tbsp. butter


Directions: 

Preheat oven to 375 degrees; grease a large cookie sheet.


Cream together the cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla; set aside.


Remove biscuits from the package.  Take a knife and carefully make a hole in the center of each.  Stick your finger inside and make the hole bigger.


Place one teaspoon of preserves in the bottom, then a large spoonful of the cream cheese mixture, then another teaspoon of preserves on top.


Carefully crimp the hole shut until it's completely sealed. 


Flatten them out a little and place onto the cookie sheet.  Continue with remaining biscuits.


Bake for 10-12 minutes; until golden brown.  Let them cool on the pan.


In one bowl place the powdered sugar; in another bowl melt the butter.


 Brush some melted butter all over the donut.


Then place it in the powdered sugar and coat it completely.


Continue with remaining donuts.


Take a bite and enjoy!

    1. I never have, however I'm sure it would work just fine. Make sure the edges are crimped together so they don't open up ;)
