I’ve always loved homemade doughnuts. I remember when I was a kid, my mom made doughnuts from scratch once or twice – she didn’t think they turned out very good because she was always critical of her own cooking, but I always said, “Mom, those were SO GOOD!”. I really need to try my hand at it myself someday. And now I have another recipe, thanks to this strawberry doughnut recipe that came across my desk yesterday! This was aired as part of a cooking demo on Veria Living TV network’s show The Juice. Doesn’t this sound so good?
