Ingredients

  • Oil for deep-fat frying
  • 2 tubes (10.2 ounces each) large refrigerated buttermilk biscuits

Preparation

Step 1

In electric skillet or deep fryer, heat oil to 375°. Drop biscuits, a few at a time, into hot oil. Fry until golden brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels.

Meanwhile, place cream in small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 1 minute; stir in coffee granules until dissolved. Add cream cheese and Nutella; beat until smooth.

Cut small hole in corner of pastry or plastic bag; insert very small tip. Fill bag with coffee mixture. Push tip through side of each doughnut to fill with cream. Dust tops with confectioners' sugar and cocoa. Serve immediately. Yield: 10 doughnuts.
