Amount Ingredient
Use a six-pointed-star cookie cutter to make these traditional holiday jelly
doughnuts, which are known as sufganiot in Israel.
Vegetable oil for frying
1 tbl granulated sugar
3/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1 x 16.(3-ounce) can large refrigerated buttermilk biscuit dough
1/3 cup strawberry or raspberry jam
Frosting
Instructions:
Instructions: Bring about 3 inches of oil to 360 to 370 degrees F in a heavy pot over medium-high heat.

Combine sugar and cinnamon and set aside.

Separate biscuits and roll out each to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut into star shapes. Re-roll dough and cut out more stars.

Fry 2 to 3 doughnuts until the undersides are golden brown, about 3 minutes.

Gently turn the doughnuts over and finish frying the other side. Lift doughnuts out of the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining dough.

Cool. Place doughnuts on a sheet of wax paper to catch the drippings. Fill with jam, using a disposable decorating bag and decorating tip. Or, make a slit in the side of the doughnut and spoon in jam. Frost tops with thin layer of frosting and decorate with sprinkles.
