Donuts usually show up with big frosting energy and absolutely no interest in your goals. Respectfully, that ends here. These soft, peanut buttery donuts get dipped in rich chocolate and finished with chopped Quest Peanut Butter Cake Frosted Cookies for a sweet upgrade that feels wildly unnecessary in the best way. Dessert? Sure. But with protein in the mix, this batch hits a little harder. The glaze is glossy. The texture is elite. The macros understood the assignment.
