Drop the donuts and donut holes into the hot oil using the paper to carefully lower them into the oil.

Turn them over as soon as they become golden brown on the underside, then remove and place on a paper towel lined plate or baking sheet once they are ready.

How Should You Finish Your Donuts
Sugar Coated Doughnuts
When the doughnuts have cooled, roll them in sugar to coat evenly.

You can also use powdered sugar to coat them. I remember liking the Dunkin’ Donuts chocolate kreme filled donuts when I was a young transplant to the US in the late 1970s! They were filled with a fake chocolate “cream” and coated with confectioner’s sugar! I don’t think I’d like them today. Now I’m wondering if they still make them?
