  • Spray cooking spray on non-stick donut baking pans. Pour the donut batter into each donut mold about 1/2 to 3/4 full. This should make about 22 donuts (3" in diameter). Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

  • Once the donuts are cooled it is time to decorate. Dip each donut into the cream cheese "frosting" then sprinkle with mini chocolate chips and chopped raspberries. You can serve them right away or they will last in the fridge for 5 days. Enjoy :)
