Love the taste of Black Forest Cake but hate all the hard work that goes into perfecting one? No need to suffer anymore -- simply make these Black Forest Donut Whoopies and sink your teeth into edible heaven.
Ingredients
1 pkg miniature chocolate frosted donuts
1 can cherry icing
½ tsp almond extract
Maraschino cherries
Instructions
On a flat, clean work surface, place each donut on its side and using a serrated knife, gently cut each one in half crosswise to form two sides, the "buns" so to speak. Repeat with remaining donuts.
Stir the almond extract into the can of cherry frosting until well incorporated. Spoon the frosting into a piping bag attached with a closed-star tip and pipe the frosting in a circular motion on the flat inside of one of the donut halves. Top the frosted donut half with the top of the donut.
Pipe a tiny star of frosting on top of the donut in the middle hole; affix a maraschino cherry on top. Serve!
NOTE: If you cannot find cherry frosting (I found mine at Target by Betty Crocker), feel free to make your own homemade cherry buttercream, or buy vanilla frosting and use a cherry extract, maraschino cherry juice, or even cherry Kool-Aid to flavor the icing.
