Directions

  • 1 Heat oven to 350°F. Separate dough into 8 biscuits. Cut each biscuit into 4 wedges. Roll each wedge into a ball. Place 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
  • 2 Bake 13 to 17 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool 5 minutes on cooling rack.

In small bowl, combine powdered sugar, vanilla, almond extract, butter flavor and milk; beat with wire whisk until blended and smooth.

Delicious! I love these because the inside is simply biscuit, so it's not sickeningly sweet throughout like most doughnut holes. They were a bit large, though, too big for a single bite unless you cram them into your mouth (which I admit I did with a few)...so next time I'll cut each biscuit into five or six pieces instead of four to make these pop-ems pop-em-in-your-mouth-size. It was a bit of work making them half-almond/half-coconut, so I made a third of the batch almond-only, a third coconut-only, & a third half&half.
