Ingredients

  • 4 chocolate mini donuts
  • 8 mini pretzel twists
  • 8 candy eyes
  • 4 red jelly beans
  • 1/4 cup chocolate frosting

Instructions

  • Gather your ingredients.
  • Using the frosting as glue, attach two pretzel twists to the top of the mini donut.
  • Next, attach two candy eyes using the same frosting.
  • Finally, use the frosting to glue a red jelly bean to the mini donut as a Rudolph nose.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

If you go the homemade route by making your own donuts, then be sure they cool down completely before you start the decorating process. If you add frosting to warm baked goods (and in this case, the frosting for the donuts acts like the “glue”), then your frosting will melt right off and all of your donut decorations will slip off.
