Needless to say, we have Bake-Off fever here at Cooking Contest Central!  I have a hunch we will be voting for many of our members in the upcoming “Amazing Doable Dinners” round starting on March 14th.

In the meantime, I wanted to find a way to celebrate all the amazing food bloggers who frequent Cooking Contest Central.  It’s time for a “Pillsbury Link-Up Party!”

Participating is easy, all you have to do is show off one of your favorite posts featuring a Bake-Off Sponsor product.  For example, this is one of my favorite recipes using a Pillsbury product.  I posted it on Better Recipes, and it was a big hit!

Quick and Easy Mini-Doughnuts

1 cup vegetable oil for frying

4.5 ounce package Pillsbury Refrigerated Buttermilk Biscuits

Confectioner’s sugar and/or cinnamon-sugar for dusting

Heat oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat until very hot, about 5 minutes. To make doughnuts, push fingers through the center of each biscuit and stretch into a doughnut shape. Gently place doughnuts in hot oil. Fry about 1 minute per side or until golden brown. Remove doughnuts with a long handle of a wooden spoon or a fork, and place on wire rack. Cool about 1 minute, then dust doughnuts with confectioner’s sugar, or sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar. Serve immediately. Makes 6 mini doughnuts.

Here is how you can participate:

1)  Find or write a blog post using any of the Pillsbury Bake-Off sponsor products (see above).  Any recipe using an ingredient from Pillsbury, Smuckers, Jif, Crisco, Eagle Brand, or Green Giant counts!

2)  In order to participate, you will need to include a link back to this page:  https://cookingcontestcentral.com/blog/ ‎

3)   Link back to your individual post, not your home page.

Spread the word, tell your friends!   I can’t wait to see all your yummy recipes!
