Ingredients

Directions

  1. Heat oven to 425°F. Grease a donut pan with nonstick spray and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl, cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla.
  4. Stir in milk and vanilla yogurt until smooth.
  5. Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and mix until just combined.
  6. Split the batter into three bowls. Keep one plain, tint one orange, and the other green.
  7. Transfer each batter to a separate zip-top bag, snip a corner, and pipe into the donut pan—4 donuts per color.
  8. Bake for 10 minutes. Let cool in pan for 2 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. For frosting, beat one stick of butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed.
  10. Add powdered sugar and 2 Tbsp milk; beat on medium-high until combined. Mix in 1 tsp vanilla.
  11. Divide frosting into three bowls and color them orange, green, and black.
  12. Put each frosting into a piping bag with desired tips (e.g., fur tip, thin tip for webs) and decorate the donuts.
  13. Garnish with candy eyes, Halloween sprinkles, or edible spiders if you like.
