Step-by-Step Instructions for Vampire Donuts
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and combine all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. In another bowl, whisk together milk, eggs, and vanilla until smooth. Gradually combine wet and dry ingredients to avoid overmixing.
- Lightly grease a donut pan. Transfer the batter into a piping bag or a resealable plastic bag and fill each donut mold halfway.
- Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
- Prepare the glaze by sifting powdered sugar and mixing with milk to achieve a smooth consistency. Add red food coloring gradually.
- Dip the cooled donuts into the glaze and let excess drip off. Consider dipping twice for thicker coverage.
- While the glaze is wet, add candy eyes and red sprinkles for decoration.
- Allow decorated donuts to set for 15 minutes, then serve on a festive platter.
