Chocolate Bacon Donuts Recipes

Steps:

• Beat pudding mix and milk in medium bowl with whisk 2 min. (Pudding will be thick.) Spoon into pastry bag fitted with plain tip. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Microwave milk chocolate and COOL WHIP in microwaveable bowl on HIGH 1 min. or until chocolate is completely melted and mixture is well blended when stirred.
• Heat oil in large saucepan to 350°F. Separate biscuits. Add, in batches, to hot oil; cook 2 min. or until golden brown, turning after 1 min. Drain on paper towels. Transfer to wire rack; cool 5 min.
• Insert tip of filled pastry bag into side of each fried biscuit to fill with pudding. Dip tops of biscuits into milk chocolate mixture. Return, dipped sides up, to wire rack; sprinkle with bacon.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease donut pans well.
• Sift flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, and salt together into a large bowl.
• Whisk milk, egg, butter, oil, and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract together in a small bowl. Stir into flour mixture until just combined.
• Spoon batter into the prepared donut pans, filling each well 3/4 full.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into a donut comes out clean, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for about 5 minutes; tap donuts out onto a sheet pan.
• Combine confectioners' sugar, hot water, and remaining vanilla extract in a bowl to make the glaze.
• Place parchment paper under a wire cooling rack. Transfer cooled donuts to the rack and coat in glaze, letting excess drip onto parchment paper; coat the donuts a second time if desired.
