Mini Pink Lemonade Donuts
By Christie
These are so cute and really delicious with a tart lemon glaze and fresh strawberry frosting. They are made in the BabyCakes Mini Donut Maker available at Kohl's for $20. Totally worth it!

Preparation
Step 1
Fill each cooking reservoir with about 2 tablespoons batter.
Follow manufactures instructions, (about 3 minutes) or bake until lightly brown.
Place donuts on a cooling rack.
With a toothpick or cake tester, poke a few small holes in each donut. I used the fork that came with the Donut iron.
Brush with lemon glaze, and frost with Strawberry icing while still warm.
Makes about 3 dozen mini donuts
