Doughnuts Recipe (homemade)

When a boring day sets in, I would usually think of ways to entertain myself. I would read a book, watch television, do web surfing, or sometimes do baking. One sunny afternoon while I was watching Giada De Laurentiis show in Lifestyle channel, I was able to get the recipe of her Italian doughnuts. I loved watching her show, she cooked deliciously and so appetizing. The next day, I tried to cook and I was glad of the result. The doughnuts tasted good especially with my chocolate dip. Unfortunately, I didn't get its right shape. It should be round like munchkins not a flat one. However, I didn't mind about it since I was after its taste. 

It was my first time to follow a recipe from a cooking show that I got it right. I was so proud with myself and with my accomplishment. After all, it's good to explore and experiment with food especially when you got its right taste.

Happy cooking everyone! :))
