Ingredients

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 375°F. Separate dough into 8 biscuits. With 1-inch round cookie cutter, cut hole in center of each biscuit. Place coconut in shallow dish. Dip both sides of biscuits and holes into coconut; press lightly. Place on ungreased large cookie sheet about 2 inches apart.
  • 2
    Bake 10 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack; cool 2 minutes. Frost doughnuts with frosting; sprinkle with pecans. Heat hot fudge topping as directed on jar; drizzle over doughnuts.

Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Pecans are traditional for German chocolate cake, or in this case, doughnuts, but you can use chopped walnuts or almonds as well.
  • tip 2
    Have warm, sink-your-teeth-in doughnuts ready in minutes for a brunch or a breakfast buffet. Serve them alongside cheesy scrambled eggs and fresh fruit or juice.
