I think I made it clear just how much I LOVE the Babycakes Cake Pop Maker, and today I’m going to share how I make Babycakes Donut Holes with the Babycakes Cake Pop Maker. Donut holes! At home! One of our favorite desserts is donut holes with chocolate and caramel dipping sauces. If you have never dipped a donut hole into some caramel sauce, trust me, do it. Oh my word, it’s GOOD.
To make donut holes, you really follow the same steps as you would follow to make cakepops. I tried a few recipes, but hands down the favorite recipes in our house were the ones that came from the Babycakes.

I also highly recommend their chocolate donut recipes.
I think they have done a great job of developing recipes that work extremely well with their products. Both my husband and daughter said they preferred these to Dunkin Donuts (fried) donut holes. You can whip these up quicker than you could run to Krispy Kreme, and because they are not fried, they really are a great choice if you are going to have donut holes.
Here’s a quick visual of how I created these donut holes…
I made a simple glaze for mine – powdered sugar, a splash of vanilla and enough milk to get it to the consistency that I wanted. I poured my glaze into a pan and then rolled my donut holes around in the glaze, then set them on a rack to let the extra drip off. I think adding some maple instead of vanilla would be a great alternative. You could also roll them around in powdered sugar, cinnamon and sugar, whatever you like.
YUMMY!
Even better with some dipping sauces!

I bake desserts and cater as a part-time job. Cake pops are so fun and my 6 year old
loves to help bake. This maker would be so much easier to use than
traditional cake pop recipes where you have to roll the balls by hand. No fun!
