Mashed Potato Doughnuts
My favorite food to make and my favorite food to eat, although I think I like making them so much because I know at the end of the process comes the eating.😛 Donuts can be a labor of love in that they take some effort to make. But that makes them all the more special. Besides, you wouldn't want donuts to be too easy to make; that could lead to some serious weight gain (at least it probably would for me).
