Donuts are a type of deep-fried dessert food made out of dough or batter. The two most common types of donuts are ring donuts, which are shaped like rings, and filled donuts, which are round and have jam, jelly, custard, whipped cream, or chocolate inside them. Most donuts have an icing (also called a “frosting”) made with icing sugar, water, and flavorings such as chocolate.
