Daydreaming About Donuts

Between my computer crash and the flu I was unable to keep on top of dish writings this week. Here’s what was supposed to be posted on Monday…

Call it what you will; Fat Tuesday, Mardi Gras,”pancake day” (in France) or, as I knew it growing up; Fausnaught Day (aka Donut Day).

And just in time for Fausnaught Day, our very own West Chester Scoop has a delicious addition to their menu. DONUTS! Delicious, can’t-stop-thinking-about-them donuts.

These made-to-order donuts are the best I’ve had the pleasure of tasting. They are made with an apple-cider batter, fried to perfection and topped to your liking.

Enjoy powdered sugar, cinnamon and sugar, vanilla glaze, chocolate glaze, honey or plain. Of course, you can add sprinkles and, for those who are feeling as adventurous as I was, request a “hole in one,” a hot, fresh donut topped with your favorite scoop of ice cream (I recommend the honey-bun ice cream on top of a cinnamon-sugar donut for a fabulously guilty breakfast).

West Chester Scoop also offers Bucks County Coffee in various flavors. Right now, anyone who purchases a cup o’ joe on a weekday receives a FREE donut! Short: $1.64; Tall: $1.86; Grande: $1.96. You are missing out if you don’t stop by to try this delightful combo for yourself.

One donut: $.65
1/2 Dozen: $3.50
Dozen: $7.00

The Final Dish:

Don’t be greedy! Get a dozen or two of warm deliciousness for church, work, home or parties. You’ll be oh so popular!
