Yeah, sounds like a good plan probably. Thanks. The donut recipe itself is delish! I can’t think of any way I’d improve it! It brings me back to the days I lived around a Tim Hortons.

Muffles – oh gosh. I’m far from an expert when it comes to frying. Mine were cooked through, but I think the outers were slightly overdone. Try making them smaller and see if that helps? Otherwise, not sure… Sorry!

Hey, good job on the doughnuts! You sold me on them, and I went home and tried the chocolate holes (I can only handle one kind at a time!) Totally with you on not being able to tell when they’re “browned”, lol. One problem I had though was the outside was DEFINITELY done but when I cut it open, the middle was still really gooey. The oil was around 350 – 375 the whole time, and I think I made them the size you said. Any suggestions? I don’t want to reduce the temp or they’ll be greasy, but most of mine were overcooked in an attempt to get the middles done! (although in retrospect, gooey middles are far far better than burned outsides).
