Directions
-
Step one
Pour oil into a large saucepan and heat over medium heat to 350°F. Monitor oil temperature carefully to make sure it doesn't get too hot.
-
Step two
Blend cake mix, eggs, and pudding in a large bowl with an electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes.
-
Step three
Using two spoons or a 1 tablespoon cookie scoop, carefully drop balls of dough into hot oil. Work close to the oil to prevent splashing. You can cook 5 to 6 donut bites at a time. Cook, turning frequently, 3 to 5 minutes, until golden brown on the outside and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
-
Step four
Use a slotted spoon to remove donut bites to a paper towel-lined plate. Cool completely.
-
Step five
Scoop frosting into a small microwave-safe bowl and use food coloring to dye it lavender. Microwave in 5 second increments until frosting is fluid, about the consistency of corn syrup, stirring after each. Drizzle frosting over cooled donut bites.
-
Step six
Push PEEPS® Marshmallow Chicks down on the sticks to make room for a donut bite to be skewered on top. Skewer a donut bite through the top and bottom of each PEEPS® Pop. Serve and enjoy!
