I bet that got your attention, didn’t it?! I believe donuts are supposed to have sprinkles – it just make them taste better! 🙂 Of course, throw on some cookies, and you have a dynamite breakfast the whole family will love!

I bought some Oreo cookies the other day with the full intention of making a dessert with them. The problem is my mind is so full of ideas, just when I think I have a great recipe, another one pops in my head. These donuts sounded like the perfect way to fight the winter “blahs” …. don’t you agree?
