In January, we went to Alt Summit and met many amazing bloggers. Utah local Alison Faulkner from Provo is one of them. She creates an adorable blog called The Alison Show and his is a yummy Valentine’s Day recipe from her blog!
Mini-Heart Shaped Donut Recipe
(from Wilton)
Donut batter:
2 cups cake flour
¾ cup sugar
2 tsp baking powder
¼ tsp nutmeg
1 tsp salt
¾ cup buttermilk
2 eggs lightly beaten
2 Tbls butter melted
Spray pan with cooking spray. Combine ingredients and mix well. Pour into piping bag. Pipe the hearts half full. Bake at 425 for 4-6 minutes, or until donut pops back when lightly touched.
Ice or frost!
Buttercream Frosting Recipe:
1 cup room temp butter
4 or so cups of powdered sugar (maybe more)
1/8 cup cream
1/8 cup milk (or 1/4 cup milk if you don’t have heavy whipping cream)
1 tsp vanilla extract
Cream the butter with the paddle attachment on your mixer. For at least 5 minutes or so. Add the sugar and milk and whip for a few more minutes! Add color if you’d like. Add more sugar or milk depending on your needs, or add more butter if it gets too sweet. You want the frosting stiff enough to pipe, so when you pull your spoon out, the peak should not flop over at all. We call that a stiff peak!
