There’s no need to go “Under the Sea” to find awesome donuts!! Pretend that was funny and clever ? But seriously, these donuts are a beautiful addition to any summer party and they taste as good as they look! Super moist with nice vanilla flavor and tender crumb – enjoy!

- Preheat oven to 350 F and grease donut pan with cooking spray.
- Cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in eggs, one at at time, until combined. Beat in vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Add half of dry ingredients to wet and mix to combine. Pour in milk, then continue mixing. Fold in remaining dry ingredients by hand.
- Divide batter between three bowls and color as follows: teal, light blue, and purple.
- Load batter into a piping bag or Ziploc bag using technique shown in video, or just spoon in the different colors. Pipe batter into donut mold and bake for 15-17 minutes.
- Mix together powdered sugar and milk until glaze is thick but stir-able. I recommend test-dipping one donut first to see if it drips off the sides too much before dipping all donuts! It can be tricky to judge consistency just by eye.
