Semi Homemade Doughnuts

(Courtesy of Mary Kay Greiber)

Ingredients:
1 tube refrigerated biscuit dough
1/2- 1/4 c. vegetable or canola oil
1 c. sugar
2 Tbsp. cinnamon

Directions:
In a skillet, heat the oil to 375 degrees (can also use a deep fryer for this if you would prefer).  Unroll the biscuit dough.  Use a small circle cutter and cut a circle out of the center of each biscuit (you can also use your finger to poke a hole through the dough, you just wont have the small doughnut holes).  Place the biscuit dough in the hot oil.  Cook them until they are lightly golden brown.  Cook another minute on the other side.  These cook fast so make sure to keep an eye on them.  Remove from the oil and place on paper towels to drain off the excess oil.  In a ziploc bag, mix together the sugar and cinnamon.  Put the cooked doughnut in the ziploc bag and shake until coated.  Serve.
