Chocolate Peanut Butter Donuts

Thank you to Craftsy for sponsoring this post!

I think I’ve got a new obsession and it’s a fun one. I bought a doughnut pan last month and I am having a lot of fun playing around with it and trying out new recipes. I got my hands on this free Delicious Doughnuts eGuide that’s taught me some tips and tricks and then I got to baking doughnuts. My most successful experiment so far are these Chocolate Peanut Butter Donuts!

These are baked chocolate doughnuts frosted with a chocolate peanut butter glaze and then drizzled with peanut butter.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Donuts Recipe:

Supplies Needed:

• Doughnut pan
• Delicious Doughnut Recipes eGuide

 

Ingredients: (I adapted this recipe from one that I found in the Delicious Doughnut Recipes eGuide.)

Makes about 20 doughnuts

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 3/4 C cocoa powder
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp salt (kosher is best)
• 1 C packed brown sugar
• 1 C buttermilk
• 2 eggs
• 1 stick (1/2 C) melted butter
• 2 teaspoons vanilla

For the Glaze:

• 1 1/2 C powdered sugar
• 3 Tbsp cocoa powder
• 3-4 Tbsp peanut butter
• 4-5 Tbsp milk
• 2 teaspoons vanilla

 

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Mix dry ingredients in a large bowl. Combine remaining ingredients in a separate bowl. Pour wet mixture into dry mixture and beat until combined and smooth.

Scoop batter into a ziploc bag. Snip off the corner of the bag and pipe the batter into your doughnut pan.

Bake for 10-12 minutes.

Let the doughnuts cool. As they cool make the glaze.

When they are cool, dip the top of the doughnuts into the glaze.

Warm about 1/4 C of peanut butter in the microwave for about 30 seconds. Using a spoon drizzle peanut butter over the top of the doughnuts:

 

And enjoy!
