Twin Peaks Doughnuts: How to make a Bobby Briggs doughnut

Well Twin Peaks Returns has finally hit our screens, and its as screwy as ever and I love it!

During the run up of Twin Peaks Returns, I decided to film myself making one of the doughnuts from theTwin Peaks Doughnuts book I made. Its one of my more successful attempts at a Twin Peaks doughnut - the Bobby Brigggs doughnut. A chocolate doughnut with a peanut butter meringue frosting and absolutely covered in chocolate and peanutty sweets! They're pretty addictive, I do have to say...
So may I present my first foray into filming baking/recipes!


Now these doughnuts are by no means perfect (hence why I'm not posting a recipe up for them), which you will see in the video. But hopefully it may give you some inspiration or maybe you can try making these doughnuts yourself? (And doing a way better job than me at them)! My Twin Peaks Doughnuts book features lots of different types of doughnuts, which all sound pretty delicious in my opinion. How about a chocolate and chilli Laura Palmer doughnut? Or a rich coffee Dale Cooper doughnut? Or maybe even a black forest gateau-themed doughnut for Audrey Horne? (complete with cherry)! The book features 42 ideas for 42 characters of Twin Peaks, so there is a lot to choose from! And please feel free to send me photos/videos if you do decide to try out these doughnuts - I would love to see them!



I'm hoping the next set of doughnuts I make will be The Man From Another Place. These are red velvet mini doughnuts with a sweet cream cheese frosting - decorated in a black and white zig zag pattern, of course!
