1. Chocolate Glazed Donuts
My kids love donuts. Especially the kind that come in a box from the supermarket. Those things last way longer than they really should which is a bit of a red flag regarding what's in 'em that makes 'em last that long, don't ya think?
So, being that I like to bake and all, I decided to have a go at making homemade donuts. With chocolate glaze, of course. Let me tell you, these were super easy to make, not overly sweet, and the kids love them. I'd say that counts as a mommy victory, wouldn't you?!
