Double Chocolate Donuts (Vegan and Gluten Free)

Double Chocolate Donuts.  My husband and older daughter love all things chocolate.  I am more of a vanilla girl.

I made these chocolate donuts for them.  Most of my donut recipes can double for breakfasts, but this recipe is extra indulgent and better as a dessert.

These chocolate donuts are almost like a brownie in donut form.  I was excited to make these chocolate donuts because I got to break out my heart shaped donut pans.

I bought them right after Valentine’s Day when they were 50% off.
