If you don't happen to own a donut pan, you can also use a standard muffin tin along with some aluminum foil. Cut 4-5 inch square pieces of foil and place your finger into the center and wrap the foil tightly around your finger. Carefully slide the foil off of your finger. Then place the foil cup into each hole of the muffin tin a press it into place and curl up the sides a little as well.t.
