Peanut Butter and chocolate have a long and varied history together. Try skipping the Reeses this time and try some Peanut Butter Donuts dipped in soft creamy chocolate. Yeah, that.
Real life happens. And that means that sometimes the dogs are playing happily in the living room while you clean up and you can hear them and everything is peachy keen. Until you discover they happened to eat all the doughnuts you were baking for the last post of the week – and the final post of the epic doughnut week. And you have to start all over again. And sometimes that sucks. Now, enough of my boring blogger problems – let’s get to the doughnuts!

Ingredients
For the Donuts
- 1 cup flour
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup peanut butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup milk
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
For the Glaze
- 4 oz unsalted butter
- 2 oz dark chocolate - chopped
- 2 tbsp heavy cream
- 1 tbsp corn syrup
- 3/4 cup confectioners’ sugar
Instructions
For the Donuts
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a mini donut pan (or regular donut pan if you don’t have a mini one).
- In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- Cream the peanut butter and sugar together in the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until light and smooth.
- Scrape down the sides and add the egg.
- Alternating, add the flour and milk until completely incorporated. Scrape down the sides if needed.
- Lastly add the vegetable oil and mix 30 seconds longer.
- Fill a ziplock bag, or piping bag with the peanut butter batter. Pipe into prepared donut pan filling each 3/4 full.
- Bake for 8 to 9 minutes, or until bottoms are golden. Turn out onto a wire rack and cool before topping with glaze.
For the Glaze
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
- Add the chocolate, cream and corn syrup. Stir gently until smooth. Remove from heat.
- Quickly whisk in the confectioners’ sugar and dip the donuts into the chocolate. If needed, spread the glaze over the donuts with a spatula.

I can only begin to imagine your reaction to what you found lol It’s funny but clearly they approved! Right? 🙂
I figured at least they didn’t eat the booze ones… though drunk dogs may have made it worth it
Omg, I would probably flip out and throw my hands in the air and go out and buy donuts and call it a day, haha – so glad you were able to remake them though! They look wonderful! I love the combo of PB & chocolate 🙂
uuum, so like a reese’s donut? drooling!
SO MANY DONUTS!!
If I lived with you, I’d have eaten the donuts too.
So much deliciousness! Yum!
Oh my! I can only image how horrified you must have been! And can I say that I love that you used the word smexy 😉
Oh nooo…but can you blame them?
Oh my gosh! I can’t believe they ate all your doughnuts! I once brought doughnuts to my boss and we walked into the kitchen and the dog had somehow knocked the tupperware off the counter and ate all the doughnuts. Dogs! I’m glad you had time to whip up this delicious looking concoction. They are beautiful! Thank you for taking part in doughnut week. Everything you made was delicious!
I don’t know. I think I’d be more worried about the future affect of rich doughnuts in the dogs’ digestive systems in a day or two than the fact that they ate your stash. Hope it all comes out ok (snicker). They’re adorable though (dogs and doughnuts).
I do not blame them! These look incredible!
These look awesome. I would have taken them all as well, so I can’t blame the dog. Syd our 2 year old lab/cattle dog mix took off with a 2.5lb piece of flank steak the other night. I thought I was going to kill her…. but she is so cute so I ate ramen for dinner instead of steak.
Wishing I had one (okay, five) of these with my coffee right now!
Oh boy, the dogs got an epic treat. These look wonderful. In my world, mini means eating more.
