    I made chocolate donuts because I've been craving one for about two weeks and I just can't bring myself to ever eat another one of those stomach bombs from Dunkin' Donuts. And, because I'm math-stupid, I have trouble scaling down a recipe that makes 16 down to 1 (which is all I WANT), so I now have about a dozen donuts sitting in my kitchen that will be there until they get stale (likely tomorrow morning) and then I'll just toss them in the wastebin.

    That said, it was a mighty tasty and uber-chocolatey donut, it's just that I can't (don't want to) eat a dozen of them. I've considered just start putting the leftovers out on a plate on the front porch, but I'm afraid the squirrels and feral cats might decide to set up housekeeping in my yard.'

    tgoddess--I think you need to start a FB page with a ticketing system for the opportunity to sit on that porch and wait for that plate--I think you'd find yourself with plenty of extra mad-money to spend on your next weekend's pastry exploration :P

    I was thinking of making donuts/holes for a bake sale this weekend and placing 2/6 in little plastic bags with a twist tie. However, I won't have time to fry them in the morning. Any tips on frying these the night before and packing them so they don't get stale by the end of the next day?
