If you are like me, then I definitely had you at double chocolate on this one. Why have one layer of chocolate when you can have two? These double chocolate protein donuts are the perfect treat made with a fluffy chocolate protein cake donut and then dipped in dark chocolate. Trust me, you will not be disappointed!
The inspiration for these came from the last time I was at a donut shop here in Indianapolis. It’s called Long’s Donuts, and if you ever come to Indy, they are a must. Best donuts you will ever have. Anyway, when I was there I got a chocolate cake donut… If you can’t already tell, I am quite obsessed with chocolate, hence why I made these chocolate protein donuts.
Anyway, I won’t lie to you and say that these tasted as good as that donut, but I will say that it probably has about 1/3 of the calories and 5x the protein. So, there’s that. If you care about calories, these double chocolate protein donuts are definitely a better option.
Of course to make them chocolate all the typical chocolate ingredients went in such as cocoa powder and chocolate protein powder. I think part of the reason the chocolate flavour of these was so good, however, was because of the rich cocoa powder combined with the natural chocolate ONE Vegan Protein Powder.
If you are like me and love chocolate ….. and donuts, you will certainly be happy after making these!
