Surprises should be of the sweet and pleasant variety.

And so when the theme of this week’s challenge demanded ‘Surprise Me’ I thought I’d make mini donuts.

Though they are not exactly healthy and sometimes excessively sweet, I quite enjoy eating them every now and then. When I was a kid, mom would always pick up cream donuts from a bakery not too far away from my house. I could never finish the whole thing but, boy, was it yum?

Krispy Kreme, Dunkin Donuts, Mad Over Donuts or ones from local boulangeries, I’ve had it all but, honestly, homemade variety is the best.

Here’s a mix of chocolate sprinkles and powdered sugar coated donuts.

And now be wowed by Anupma Bakshi‘s super fancy surprise of Cheesy Jalapeño Wrappers.
