Japanese Donuts for a bedtime snack? YES!

Big thanks to sister for getting me a digital kitchen scale for Christmas. I made some Japanese donuts at 9PM... to celebrate the Olympics. OK, not really but I guess I had to make some kind of justification for making donuts right before bedtime! The recipe measured everything in grams and mL and aside from using the digital scale to weight out the marijuana I have growing in the office, I mainly use it when "jam"-ing. Since I'm killing myself slowly with sugar and fat, might as well top it off with some quick and easy chocolate ganache! I also brought out the mini fryer. If I'm going to make donuts at 9PM, I'm rolling out the red carpet for this. Oh boy was it worth it. Alan had the expression of the kid who's mom packed a hostess cupcake along with his chow fun for lunch. Kids are jealous.
Crusty, crunchy, fluffy, chewy goodness rolled up in a golf sized ball that were popped into a paper sack to merry with some cinnamon-sugar goodness and then dunked in a warm, rich, dark, chocolaty sauce that ended up in a couple of happy mouths that led to happy bellies. And I'm wondering why my winter coat seems a little more padded this year.

p.s. I was joking about the marijuana, I don't grow any. Wouldn't that be something? I could make magic brownies and cookies that can 'cure all ailments.' I'm kidding!
