Do you ever see something awesomely creative and cool and you think -- MAN, I wish I thought of that!! Then you get on your "pony" (as Vale or Kristie would say) and you start thinking "I could have thought of that! I can think of something else... like that! Then that could be MY thing. I'll be instantly famous and rich beyond my wildest dreams!!!" Well, I have been thinking about Cake Pops lately. And while I was making doughnuts (or DONUTS if you grew up with Dunkin' like myself) the other day, I was certain that I had a million dollar idea. Watch the magic happen...

Wait, wait... hold the phone. Did that just happen? I don't know, I blacked out. Let's see that in instant reply.

Camera One and a 1/2....

Camera TWOOOOOOOO (Oprah voice):

What do ya think? Am I on to something here??
Side note: I used candy melts on these doughnuts, thinking it would be "close enough" to the chocolate glaze. Welllll, nah-so-much. The chocolate candy coating didn't seep into the dough and make it extra sweet and sticky. Plus, the dough just came out heavier than my past couple batches. I smell a do over.
