I saw this cake pan at William Sonoma and HAD to have it!
We love cake and we love donuts, so why not make them at the same time?!
First we made a batch of cake batter. Then we divided the batter in half, filling each of these cake pans about 2/3 full, and baked according to the recipe.
We added a little chocolate frosting to the middle to hold the two halves together.
Dave did such a fabulous job frosting the top of the donut cake to make it look like an actual donut. Next up, sprinkles!
This was such a fun baking experiment and delicious snack for a Saturday afternoon.
Anyone care for a slice?

What a fun baking project! It looks just like a donut…sprinkles and all! Are you getting a lot of snow right now as well?
This looks like Homer Simpson’s best dream ever! Seriously, what a cute cake, and you’re husband did do a good job frosting it.
Hmmm. I have absorbed too much of my teenage son’s love of the Simpsons.
Thanks Joan! I forgot to mention that we love the Simpsons, so this donut cake reminded us of Homer too! ~Terri
You would share it?! I would gobble it up all myself!
Oh yes, I will definitely share!
Wow – I love your donut cake!! That would be a huge hit with my family – we are big donut lovers too:) I wish we had Willams Sonoma in Australia – I used to love browsing through their stores when I lived in the US.
Love your recent quilt finish too Terri- such happy fabrics.
I agree with Sherri, it really looks like a donut. I bet it tastes better though, since it’s homemade. Yummy!!
Y*U*M! What a cool pan. . .and a delicious snack!
I’ll be right over!
Shall I put on a pot of coffee?!
adorable!
Yum!! This looks like great Super Bowl food!!
Yum! I’m about to make Snickerdoodles myself, though that chocolate looks so yummy!
That looks like just what I need. Love donuts, love,love, love, chocolate and love cake. Could you ask for anything else. Oh ya a latte would go great with that. Thanks, think I will. Hope you had a great weekend.
Terri,
I love your donut cake. How much fun was that to make!!
How fun! Was it good?
