Ingredients
  

  • 175g Baking Spread
  • 175g Light Brown Sugar
  • 3 Eggs
  • 140g Self-Raising Flour
  • 35g Cocoa Powder
  • 3 tbsp Milk
  • 300g Melted Chocolate Spread/ Chocolate Spread
  • 3-4 Crushed Flakes

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to Gas mark 4 and lightly grease a silicone donut mould or spray with non-stick baking spray.
  2. In a mixing bowl/ large bowl. Beat together your softened baking spread and light brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add in your eggs and vanilla and mix until combined. Then, sift in the flour and cocoa powder, and pour in the milk. Gently fold the mixture together until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix, as this can make dense donuts instead of light and fluffy ones!
  3. Spoon the batter into your donut mould, filling each donut about ¾ full.
  4. Bake for 10–12 minutes or until the donuts spring back when gently pressed. Let them cool in the mould for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack!
  5. Time to decorate! Once cooled, dip each donut into milk chocolate spread. Sprinkle with crushed Flake bars.
  6. Finally, Eat!
