Aren't these fun? I'm so excited to share them with you today!
They aren't rocket science. I mean, it's refrigerated biscuit dough after all. But I just think they're so. stinkin'. cute for a halloween party.
I imagine these piled high on a big black platter with clouds of powdered sugar pushing over the platter's edge onto the table cloth. The powdery mess almost making them more spooky.
I've been having a little bit of fun with video lately. I'm a great big newb when it comes to video editing so it takes me a ridiculously long time to make even a 30 second clip, but it's so fun when it's done.
And just like a picture is worth a thousand words, a video is worth... a million? I dunno. Here's how to make them, nonetheless.
The printable recipe is below as well. Enjoy, friends!

Screaming Ghost Donuts
Ingredients
- 1 tube refrigerated biscuit dough
- oil for frying-- I use peanut
- powdered sugar
Instructions
- Heat oil over medium heat to 350-375 degrees.
- Roll each piece of dough into an oblong shape and cut 2 eyes and a mouth with small round cutters--I used the back ends of frosting tips.
- Carefully lower each "ghost face" into the oil and fry until golden on each side.
- Remove from oil and drain on paper or a rack. Once mostly cool, dust donuts with a liberal amount of powdered sugar

I stretched out the dough a little and they looked amazing. I used homemade cinnamon sugar and this was a hit! I finished it with powdered sugar. Nothing but happiness ?

Hi there! I made these for my boys this year for our 'ghost' day during Halloween week. Super easy and a big hit. Thanks! I even wrote about it in my mom blog.

Can you make these using an air fryer instead of oil?
Lexi says
These were great! After taking each donut out of the oil, I sprinkled a little cinnamon sugar right away and it added a little more pizzazz! I will keep this recipe and change it in fun ways for each holiday!
