These miniature mint-crusted donuts are a delight to make in a jiffy with just a few ingredients. Simply mix together a dough of ricotta, self-rising flour, eggs, and sugar, then drop them spoonfully into hot vegetable oil. While frying, the dough balls will puff up into round, fluffy donuts. Immediately roll them in red mint sugar. A perfect treat for the winter holidays!
