# Ingredient List:

10 - 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

# Steps:

05 - Fill each donut cavity with the coated biscuit mixture, gently pressing to compact.
06 - Bake for 22–25 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
07 - Remove pan from oven. Brush the warm donuts with 2 tablespoons melted butter and sprinkle with grated Parmesan and fresh dill. Allow to cool for 5 minutes in the pan before unmolding and serving warm.
