2 C powder sugar
1 exact knife or pairing knife
Rolling pin
Cutting board
Decorating directions:
Lightly sprinkle powder sugar onto a cutting board, the rolling pin and onto the black fondant
Place the black fondant onto the middle of the cutting board and roll out the fondant to 1/8-1/4 inch thickness
Cut out your Maleficent horns and place the cut out onto the fondant
Use the Exacto knife or pairing knife and carefully run the blade along the edge of the cut out
Repeat steps and cut out 14 more Maleficent horns out of space that you have left of the rolled out fondant.
Lay out your 15 fondant pieces to dry for an hour
Vanilla donut icing ingredients:
4 C powdered sugar
1 tbsp clear corn syrup
1/2 C whole milk
1 tsp clear vanilla extract
Leaf Green and Purple gel food coloring
1 disposable piping bag
Icing Directions:
Using a standing mixer, combine the powdered sugar, corn syrup, milk and vanilla extract and mix on medium to high speed until smooth and thick
Scoop about 1/4 C of the icing into 1 bowl for the green icing
Add a few drops of Purple to the remaining white icing
Add a few drops of Green to the small bowl with the 1/4 C icing and mix until combined
Scoop the green icing’s into the piping bag and set aside
Decorating Directions:
Place your donuts onto a wire rack with a cookie sheet under it
Using the purple icing, pour the icing onto the donuts so that the icing completely coats the doughnuts
Allow the purple icing to dry for 10 minutes
Place the fondant horns in the center of the donut
Using the green piping bag, cut the tip of the piping bag and fill in the bottom part of Maleficent’s horns for her face.
Allow icing to dry for an hour before enjoying!
