RECIPE: These Max Rebo Donuts are Out of this World!
This weekend we are celebrating National Donut “month” by trying out some delectable treats (like our visit to Everglazed) yesterday. Today, we’re giving you a chance to create your very own “out-of-this-world” donut creation with a Star Wars-inspired Max Rebo Donuts.
This tribute to the leader of Jabba the Hutt’s in-house band is an adorable dessert that is sure to make Star Wars fans of all ages smile.
Max Rebo Donuts
INGREDIENTS:
- Dark chocolate mini donuts
- Brown icing
- Edible gold luster dust
- Black icing
- Lollipop sticks
For icing:
- ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
- 2-1/2 cups powdered sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla
- 2-3 Tablespoons milk
- Light blue food gel dye
DIRECTIONS:
Step 1: With a #5 tip, use the brown icing to pipe stripes from the center out on top of each donut. Then go around the edge and add small ovals. Let set.
Step 2: Once the icing has set, use a clean kitchen paintbrush and brush the piped icing with gold luster dust. Set aside.
Step 3: In the bowl of an electric mixer beat the butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, milk, and blue food gel dye, until you get an even color and smooth piping consistency.
Step 4: Spoon the frosting into a piping bag and use a #12 tip to pipe the body onto the center of the donut.
Step 5: Use a #7 tip to pipe the arms on both sides of the body, then use a toothpick to create the hands.
Step 6: Create the head with a #10 tip, pulling down the snout in the front of the face. Then pipe sideways teardrop shapes on both sides of the head for the ears.
Step 7: With the black icing and a #2 tip, pipe very small eyes on the front of the face.
Step 8: When the frosting has set, carefully place onto the lollipop sticks to serve.
