Ingredients

• 1 quart fresh strawberries, sliced
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar, divided
• 1 (16.3 oz) can Pillsbury Butter Tastin Homestyle Rolls
• 1 quart oil, for frying (vegetable or peanut oil work great)

Directions

• In a medium bowl, toss together sliced strawberries and 2 tablespoons sugar. Set aside. Line a plate with paper towels for draining donuts. Set aside. Heat oil in a large deep pot to 350°F. Using a 1 1/2 inch biscuit/cookie cutter, cut out the center of each biscuit. Fry each donut until golden brown and then flip and fry the other side - about 1.5 to 2 minutes on each side. Drain donuts on paper towels for 30 seconds and then toss in the remaining sugar. Let donuts cool for 5 minutes (they will still be warm, but not too hot) and top with whipped cream and strawberries. Serve immediately!
