Many doughnut stores are around the corner. One of them is Krispy Kreme doughnut which is opened up in Erie, PA about 3 years ago. It is very popular with their glazed doughnut which usually they serve them warm. One thing that I love about Krispy Kreme, their doughnut is so soft and WOW it is delicious! The stores have a neon sign, when a neon sign is on it tells customers that hot and fresh doughnut are coming off the line. It is also mean that they have free glazed doughnut! Customers are waiting on the line, are served with delicious and free warm glazed doughnut. That is my favorite moment!My husband is a doughnut lover. His best choices are apple fritter and custard filled. I myself love chocolate glazed doughnut. Yep, I am quite chocolate mania. So it doesn’t work with my diet and no wonder I can’t get rid of my baby fat!
SO I don’t know why while Krispy Kreme store is in town I am making some doughnuts? It happened by reading one of my multiply online buddy IRMA. She posted homemade Krispy Kreme doughnut then I though why don’t I give my self a chance to try and make some. And I am happy with this recipe, I think you should try too:)
