These delicious donuts taste like scratch made, but they come from a roll of biscuit dough. We call them express because the come together quickly. Perfect for a weekend brunch. This recipe will have everyone thinking you went to a lot of trouble to make these.
Heat the oil to reach 375 degrees F and hold at this temperature.
To form your donut take the biscuits and place on a flat surface, punch a hole in the middle (I use a shot glass). Make sure to keep the middle to make donut holes!
Mix your glaze up by combining the confectioners’ sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth.
Place 2-3 donuts in the hot oil at a time (don’t overcrowd the oil) cook for one minute then flip and cook for another minute.
Remove the donut from the oil and let it drain on a wire rack for 1 minute (don’t let donuts cool).
Place donuts into sugar glaze and submerge, then remove, let drip and place back on wire rack to dry and cool.

Notes
In the picture, I also created a little sugar and cinnamon mixture and dipped the donuts in a few just for a different taste and it was just as good!!
