Ground nutmeg: 1/2 teaspoon
Egg : 1
Milk : 1/2 cup
Unsalted butter: 2 tablespoons
Oil : for deep frying
Powdered Sugar : 1/2 cup

Method:
Take a bowl and add all purpose flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and nutmeg and mix well.
Add in Egg, milk and butter to the dry ingredients and beat well to mix for 3 minutes.
Heat oil in a pan. Take a small ice cream scoop and scoop dough into the oil. Fry for 2-3 minutes on medium heat or until the donuts are golden brown.
Take them out and place on a paper towel. Immediately take the donut holes on a plate and dust the powdered sugar and serve hot.
You can add melted chocolate or sugar syrup instead of powdered sugar.

I love marble cakes as they satisfy the taste buds of many. I wanted to bake a cake for my dear friend for her birthday. She loved my marble cake before but she likes red velvet. So, I thought of mixing her interests and bake a red velvet marble bundt cake.
She was very happy with both the look of it and the taste, and all the kids loved it. My daughter wants me to bake this cake again for her birthday.
