These apple-shaped red velvet cake mix donuts are the perfect addition to your child’s classroom party for back-to-school.

Are your kids back to school yet? Mine started back during the week. Their last year of elementary school. Cue tears.

Note: These apple donut treats were originally created for Hewlett Packard’s MyPrintly website however that site is currently offline. You can still find some of the MyPrintly projects on the HP YouTube channel. 

With kids gearing up to head back to school, whether you are a parent, a teacher, or on the PTA, it’s time to think about class parties, back-to-school celebrations, and fun (and easy) gifts to give throughout the year. And this one is delicious and sure to be a big hit.

Follow the directions below and make them, but first, download and print the apple stalk printable.
