This homemade chocolate glazed donuts recipe is perfect for breakfast and dessert lovers alike.
Can we talk about chocolate for a second? Because I seriously can’t believe how much I love it! The best thing about it is that’s incredibly versatile. You can use it for breakfast, dessert, eat it as is, make drinks with it— you can pretty much have it in every moment of your life.
As a professed chocoholic, I’m always looking for recipes that are full of chocolate and that are a total crowd favorite. Yes, the recipes need to be both things, mind-blowing good and literally filled to the brim with chocolate… the more the better!
So when I found myself looking for breakfast recipes I had one thing clear, it had to include chocolate. So I went to Pinterest on the lookout for inspiration (isn’t that the place we all go to for inspiration?) and that’s where I saw a delicious pic of donuts. And it hit me: Homemade Chocolate Glazed Donuts!
If you have a big sweet tooth, then this recipe is for you! It’s chock-full of chocolate flavor, and it’s sweet without being too overpowering (the real star here is the chocolate!). The donuts are soft and pillowy and so, so delicious. And because the donuts are baked, you can feel slightly less guilty —They’re perfect for breakfast or dessert!
