Chocolate Oreo Sprinkle Donuts

I bet that got your attention, didn’t it?! I believe donuts are supposed to have sprinkles – it just make them taste better! 🙂 Of course, throw on some cookies, and you have a dynamite breakfast the whole family will love!

I bought some Oreo cookies the other day with the full intention of making a dessert with them. The problem is my mind is so full of ideas, just when I think I have a great recipe, another one pops in my head. These donuts sounded like the perfect way to fight the winter “blahs” …. don’t you agree?

Ingredients 

For the donuts

  • ½ cup butter, softened, 1 stick
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • cup packed brown sugar
  • cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • cup sour cream
  • cup buttermilk
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
  • ½ cup cocoa powder
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

For the glaze

  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 3 tablespoons milk, more if needed to thin glaze
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla

For the topping

  • 7 Oreo cookies, coarsely chopped
  • Sprinkles

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Lightly grease donut pans and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, cream the butter, vanilla and both sugars. Add the egg, sour cream and buttermilk. Mix until well combined.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the baking powder, baking soda, cocoa powder and flour. Gradually add to the wet ingredients.
  • Fill the donut pan cavities three-quarters of the way full. Bake for 9 minutes. Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for 2-3 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool completely.
  • After the donuts have cooled, whisk all of the glaze ingredients in a shallow medium bowl. Dip the donuts in the glaze. Sprinkle with Oreo cookies and sprinkles.

Notes

  • If you only have one donut pan, the batter is fine resting on the counter while the first pan bakes.
